Artist's Description:  An American bison rolls in a dusty wallow on a warm, late summer day. They behave like this during the rut as well as to ward off pesty insects. Sometimes they will urinate in the wallow before rolling in it. Some biologists believe this is for scent reasons as dominant males square off against one another for a female. This is an annual summer ritual among the herds of bison in Yellowstone National Park where the artist saw this particular bison.
