The best thing to do when challenged by a Bison is to stand your ground and fix it with a stare.
I deplore it when the American bison - bison bison - is mis-identified as a buffalo, weven though it can give rise to the immortal sentence: Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. As ban example of transitive verbs, common nouns and proper nouns, it is an exemplary grammar example. And can you think of a longer sentence that can be formed from the same combination of letters?
