The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is one of two extant species of bison, along with the European bison.
- Its historical range circa 9000 BC is referred to as the great bison belt, a tract of rich grassland spanning from Alaska south to the Gulf of Mexico, and east to the Atlantic Seaboard, as far north as New York, south to Georgia, and according to some sources, further south to northern Florida, with sightings in North Carolina near Buffalo Ford on the Catawba River as late as 1750.
- Two subspecies or ecotypes have been described: the plains bison, smaller and with a more rounded hump, and the wood bison, the larger of the two and having a taller, square hump.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The American bison article was read about 580,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 86 and blocks with 90: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
