ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО BISON
бизон
Зубр - это крупные копытные копытные рода из рода Bison в подсемействе Bovinae. Известны два сохранившихся и четыре вымерших вида. Из четырех вымерших видов три были североамериканцами: бизон-антик, B. latifrons и B. occidentalis. Четвертый, Bison priscus, находился в степных средах Западной Европы, Центральной Азии и Северной Америки. Есть два выживших вида: самый многочисленный американский бизон, бизон Бизон, найденный только в Северной Америке. Североамериканский вид состоит из двух подвидов: равнинного бизона, бизона бизона и бизона, бизона бизона атбабаски, который является тезкой Национального парка Вуд-Буффало в Канаде. Европейский бизон Bison bonasus, или wisent, встречается в Европе и на Кавказе, вновь введенный после вымирания в дикой природе. В то время как все виды бизонов обычно группируются в свой род, они иногда включаются в тесно родственный род Bos вместе с крупным рогатым скотом, гауром, купри и яками, с которыми зубры имеют ограниченную способность к скрещиванию.
