Bison coloring pages

Bison coloring pages help kids get to know one of the most recognizable animals in North America. At first glance they may look a bit like cattle, but bison are much larger and noticeably stronger. Their tall shoulder hump and thick fur on the front of the body give them a powerful, steady look.

These animals have been on Earth for millions of years and are closely tied to the wide American plains. Long ago, large herds moved slowly across open grasslands, grazing and resting together.

You can print a page or download an image so children can color a bison in their own way, taking time to notice its shape, fur, and calm presence.
