If you’re on Safari and
see a behbeh buff and
you can take a peecteuw
and send it to C.O.

Send it to C.O. [leg kick]

Buffies got leg warmers

toasty _and_ in fashin

BEST METER EVER! [second leg kick]

6 Meg 07.18.07 at 7:54 am

tryin’ hard to grow,
pokin’ out a buff’s head
So cute it’s on C.O.

So cute it’s on C.O.!!!

I think Meg had an extra glass of chardonnay…

I thought the baby moose (meese?) on the Russian moose farm were exotic, but the baby buffalo is a new high point in C.O. strangeness. I see thd buffalo horns (or at least the buds)… but where are the buffalo wings?

9 Cierror 07.18.07 at 8:32 am

*squee* I luv buffaloes!

10 Christina 07.18.07 at 9:22 am

Just ONE extra glass, oaklandcat? ;)

(Reading this is making me giggle though. )

11 HRH 07.18.07 at 9:39 am

oaklandcat – make that an extra bottle or two … :)

cute hornlets …

Okay, now I have this hysterical image of a bunch of people dressed in khaki and pith helmets on “safari” in Kansas. (where the deer and the antelope play)

Totally worth it to see the little bison. (where seldom is heard a discouraging word)

Their fur is quite coarse but their nosicles are so soft and moist. (and the skies are not cloudy all day.)

13 Leilani 07.18.07 at 12:30 pm

Bisons are such way cool prehistoric-looking critters. Have you seen the pics of a few that got loose and were jumping over the net in someone’s tennis court? Somehow I just never thought of bison as jumpers!

14 SeaBreeze 07.18.07 at 12:53 pm

“Oh gimme a home
Where the behbeh buffs roam…”

So not awake enuf to poeticize, but can still appreciate teh cute when I see it….

15 leah b. 07.18.07 at 1:18 pm

you might be able to rub little horn nubbs, if and only if momma does make you leave a steaming pile in that their field after she sees you near her bebbeh

16 Jorden 07.18.07 at 1:29 pm

So nubbly~and the poems! An anerable way to start the day.
Off to walk the dog (leg kick)

17 pyrit 07.18.07 at 1:29 pm

Hooorn, horn on the range…

18 Lerrinus 07.18.07 at 1:31 pm

Love a bebeh buffie! Love little horn nubbins!
*squee*
I just want to rub his (her?) little head and give him (her?) a hug!

19 Theo 07.18.07 at 1:40 pm

I’m bummed. I missed Meg’s party.

20 sapphie 07.18.07 at 1:43 pm

EEEEEE!!!!! I LOVE flufabo!

21 zeldapie 07.18.07 at 1:59 pm

Awwwwww… who on earth could eat one of those critters as a burger? He is SOOOO anerable!

22 TAJ 07.18.07 at 2:09 pm

does anyone else feel like there needs to be a fifth line that rhymes with the first two, to make it a limerick?

sadly, this is not my forte…

23 Redzilla 07.18.07 at 2:24 pm

It’s tough zeldapie, because they’re almost as delicious as they are cute [shifty eyes].

24 leah b. 07.18.07 at 2:26 pm

is that bebbeh happy or bored I cannot tell which, its like is this all we do all day Huh????

25 Sandy 07.18.07 at 3:24 pm

Leah B. I agree with you! Exactly what I was thinking.

26 CatFreak 07.18.07 at 4:12 pm

Your Spelling Weenie says, “minuscule” is spelled as if it contains the word “minus”, not “mini”.

“minuscule” si.
“miniscule” no.

Yeah, over the past ten years, I’ve seen it wrong as often as I’ve seen it right. But check it: it really is “minuscule”.

And this is a minuscule point, but I’ve come to expect perfection from our Meg, since she so commonly delivers it. ;->

27 pyrit 07.18.07 at 4:34 pm

Tootin’ my own horn here:

There once was a bebeh buffalo
Who looked like Janeane Garofalo
There was hullabaloo
From Timbuktu to Kalamazoo
When Peeps saw its’ nubs on Cute Overload.

There once was a bebeh tatonka
Who looked like Willie Wonka…
nope.

28 Kar 07.18.07 at 4:38 pm

Are those really buffalo or the hybrid BEEFalo?

29 Subhangi 07.18.07 at 6:07 pm

Bebeh is mos’ def’ bored. Hee!

30 Shannon Johnson 07.18.07 at 6:16 pm

That is so cute. I didn’t think that baby buffalo could be so cute.

31 Tor 07.18.07 at 7:35 pm

I was all set to post on the “buffalo” in Golden Gate Park in SF…but found out they are actually bison, despite what everyone thinks. However, they do have a lovely image of a bison nose…

Tor – Bison? In Golden Gate Park in SF? Really? *taking notes to add it to Cuteologists Labor Day Convenche list of things to see* If anyone wants to join us in SF over Labor Day, email me at cuteoverloadevents@gmail.com. The plans are almost complete! :-)

33 lurkertype 07.18.07 at 9:36 pm

The North American bison is commonly called “buffalo”.

If you go to a state where they roam (along with deer, antelope, and no discouraging words or cloud cover), people will look at you funny for calling them “bison”. Everyone knows that’s what they are, but everyone calls them “buffalo” anyway.

Signed, Person Whose Brother Graduated From A University Where The Sports Teams Are Called “Buffaloes” And They Own A Bison.

P.S. yeah, a safari in the wilds of Nebraska or Wyoming would be kinda silly… unless/if you’ve had all that extra wine.

34 jill-e-b 07.18.07 at 9:50 pm

Before his wee horn-nubs grow
This brown baby buffalo
Looks cuddly and cute
Though the point will be moot
When he reaches the size of an ice floe

Okay, I’m not a poet. But the only coherent thing I could say when I saw the COXCU of his nosicle is “squeeeeeeeeeee!”

35 courtney 07.18.07 at 9:53 pm

Bison and Buffalo are two different species….

Anyway! I’m all nostalgic for college now…go Buffs!!!

There are no more wild buffalo in the US, but my inlaws live in the middle of nowhere and their neighbors have a herd. We see them all the time. The calves are the cutestest!

36 stickler 07.18.07 at 10:34 pm

There are still a few wild buffalo in Yellowstone National Park. Kinda gives ya hope for nature’s resiliance. “Today there are a little more than 3,000 buffalo living in and around Yellowstone, comprising America’s only free-roaming and unfenced population.” (Quote courtesy of buffalofieldcampaign.org/).

37 AuntieMame 07.18.07 at 10:41 pm

My college mascot was the buffalo, too, but it’s not something I’m proud of. (I went to the serious campus…not the party school!)

38 Tor 07.19.07 at 12:56 am

I can’t believe I threw away my 3d glasses last time I moved. Proof that as soon as you get rid of something you have toted around for years, over 1000s of miles and a half-dozen addresses, you will find a critically important use for it.

Case in point: 3d images of bison aka American buffalo in Golden Gate Park:

You lucky ducks who still have your glasses–enjoy!

Cute little devil… or is that diablo?

40 Furbabies 07.19.07 at 6:07 pm

I saw a whole herd of bison in Thermopolis,WY. They are immense! What gorgeous creatures. Precious little one. Great pic.

41 vasco 07.20.07 at 11:06 am

MOooooooooooooooooooowww!

Re: the whole buffalo v. bison argument, yes what we have here in the US are bison (scientific name bison bison) and the ones in africa are buffalo (sry, I dunno the scientific name) *BUT* my bf’s dad, who is the Head of Natural Resources at Yellowstone National Park, and one of the leading experts on brucellosis (a disease which effects mainly bison and cattle) still calls them buffalo in everyday conversation.

that said, CUUUUUTTEEEE!
