Bill in the US House would make bison the national mammal - Daily Republic

In the United States, it's the bald eagle, which is described as majestic and legendary. Some countries have designated multiple animals as the symbol of their country, like Mexico, which honors an arthropod, mammal, marine mammal and even a national dog. And now the United States may have more than one national animal too. At the end of June, a bill was re-introduced in the U. S. House to designate the bison as the national mammal of the United States. It's called the National Bison Legacy Act. Not only are bison a figure of American history, they appear in several different forms across the country. Source: www.mitchellrepublic.com
