[122] “The stupidity of the buffalo, as well as its sagacity, has been by some writers overstated. A herd of buffaloes certainly possesses ... the sheep-like propensity of blindly following its leaders.... A little reflection, however, will show that in such instances as the rushing of a herd over a precipice or into a pond ... is not wholly an act of stupidity, but comparable to that of a panic-stricken crowd of human beings.”—“History of the American Bison,” Ninth Annual Report, Department of the Interior, p. 472.
