A Trail of White Buffalo….
Buffalo migrated from Alaska all the way into Mexico freely until the late 1800’s. Many people from different Native American/ First Nations tribes sustained their way of life by following the herds. There are stories, prophecy,... and dances dedicated to The Buffalo nation from several First Nations tribes, From the Apache, Hopi, Cheyenne, and Sioux to name but a few.
It has been said that more than 50 White Buffalo have stood upon our Earth Mother... in historic times...
STATEMENT: Chief Arvol Looking Horse, 19th Generation Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe Mitakuye Oyasin (all my relations), Another great message has come to us from the animal nation. This time, it is more urgent then ever! It has come to my attention of another birth of a white buffalo, this time it is more different then any other sign. So far since 1994, the same time that Global Warming was being announced; there have been at least 4-6 every year of these sacred buffalo calves that have stood upon the earth. Not only the buffalo have showed these signs to tell us of this great urgency that is upon us, but in many parts of the world, there have been other animal nations showing this sacred color. This color represents the south, the direction in which we pass through to the spirit world, a completed cycle.
This interpretation has to do with the Bundle I take care of; that carries a prophesy from the White Buffalo Calf Woman. She told of a time when her spirit would stand upon the earth, a time of great changes were about to come to us all. A time when the two legged would have to make a decision to change their ways to heal the damage that they have created. Boundaries in respecting life and spirit will have become violated. This birth is yet another sign, but brings more awareness of this urgency.
Since 1994, these kinds of signs have been coming, but it seems that people do not listen or want to see anything important from the animal nation’s messages. This has a lot to do with faith.
United States and Canada: In 1833, a white bison was killed by the Cheyenne. The skin of this bison is hanging on the wall of Bent's Old Fort in Colorado. The Cheyenne killed this white bison during the Leonid Meteor Shower (The Night the Stars Fell) and scribed a peace and trade treaty on its skin. This event was documented by historian Josiah Gregg and other travelers on the Santa Fe Trail.
On October 7, 1876, a buffalo hunter named J. Wright Mooar killed a white buffalo in the Deep Creek drainage near Snyder, Texas. He retained the hide his entire life, despite reports that Teddy Roosevelt offered him $5000 for the hide. White Buffalo Park is presently located near the site of the shooting, and an adjacent ranch is the current resting place of the hide.
A bison named Big Medicine (1933–1959) was born in the wild on the National Bison Range on Montana's Flathead Indian Reservation. The name "Big Medicine" was chosen due to the sacred power attributed to white bison. Following his death in 1959, his body was preserved and is now displayed at the Montana Historical Society.
A white buffalo was recorded at the U.S. Army Arctic Testing Center, Fort Greely, Alaska. There is a copyrighted photograph of it in Seeing the White Buffalo by Robert Pickering. This buffalo was part of a herd that had been relocated from Montana.
A female named Miracle (not to be confused with Miracle Moon), was born at the family farm of Dave, Valerie, and Corey Heider near Janesville, Wisconsin on August 20, 1994. Her fur fully transitioned to brown as she matured, and she gave birth to four calves of her own before dying of natural causes on September 19, 2004. Sioux tribal members had continually visited their farm since the birth of Miracle. Additionally, a calf born at the Heider farm died aged 4 days in 1996. A third white calf was born in August 2006 which died after being struck by lightning in November of the same year.
Spirit Mountain Ranch donated the herd of white buffalo to Sacred World Peace Church and Alliance, in Flagstaff, Arizona now Bend, Oregon and has successfully bred four generations of white buffalo starting from a single white female, almost all with brown fathers. Their herd includes fourteen white animals as of May 9, 2011: Miracle Moon (female, born April 30, 1997), calf of Big Momma (brown), Rainbow Spirit (female, born June 8, 2000, calf of Miracle Moon) Mandela Peace Pilgrim (female, born July 18, 2001, calf of Miracle Moon) Arizona Spirit (male, born July 1, 2002, calf of Miracle Moon) Sunrise Spirit (female, born May 22, 2004, calf of Mandela Peace Pilgrim) Spirit Thunder (male, born May 27, 2004, calf of Rainbow Spirit) Chief Hiawatha (male, born May 16, 2005, calf of Miracle Moon)[1] Our Lucky Star (male, born June 10, 2006, calf of Big Momma) White Spirit (male, born June 10, 2007, calf of Sunrise Spirit)[3] Happy Spirit (female, born May 4, 2008, calf of Miracle Moon) Dena's Pride 'n' Joy (female, born May 15, 2008, calf of Big Momma) On June 4, 2006, Miracle Moon gave birth to Little Dream Walker, a snow white baby (albino), sired by Arizona Spirit. This was the first white to white breeding. He died on June 6, 2006, due to albinism. J.R. Spirit (female, born May 7, 2011 to Mandala Peace Pilgrim) white calf Opal Sunrise Spirit (male, born May 8, 2011 to Sunrise Spirit) non-albino white calf with blue eyes and graybrown nose (not pink) Silver Spirit (calf born May 9, 2011 to Miracle Moon) male white calf Miracle Moon (the first white of this line) has been DNA tested, and is shown to be 100% buffalo, or bison.
This herd is supported by donations, memberships to Sacred World Peace Church Alliance, and by the sale of exclusive, white buffalo shed blankets woven by Pendleton for sale through Sacred World Peace Church for more information visit http://www.sacredworldpeacechurch.com/
Mahpiya Ska ("White Cloud") is an albino white buffalo born July 10, 1996. She has resided since 1997 at the National Buffalo Museum and Cultural Center in Jamestown, North Dakota. Mahpiya Ska has been certified by the National Bison Association as an albino white bison; she is deaf and has impaired vision. She has had four brown calves. On August 31, 2007, she gave birth to a white calf. The calf has yet to be tested, but it is believed to be albino.
Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo in Tupelo, Mississippi, owns a white buffalo bull named Tukota ("Too-ko-ta") A male white buffalo named Spirit of Peace was born on April 17, 2005, on the Blatz Bison Ranch in Fort St. John, British Columbia. Spirit of Peace died on June 1 of the same year, probably as a result of his premature birth.
A female White Buffalo calf was born in Shelbyville, Kentucky on June 3, 2005 at Buffalo Crossing, a buffalo ranch and tourist facility located. She was named Cante Pejute (Medicine Heart in the Lakota language) in a traditional ceremony led by Steve McCullough, a Lakota/Shawnee from Indiana.
A male named Blizzard was born in March 2006 on the farm of an anonymous rancher, who arranged to have the calf transported to Assiniboine Park Zoo in Winnipeg, Manitoba in recognition of his spiritual significance to aboriginal people.
A third white buffalo was born on the Heider farm (see "Miracle" above) on August 25, 2006. The male calf was named Miracle's Second Chance and was unrelated to Miracle. The Heiders planned to breed the male with the descendants of Miracle, but during a thunderstorm late November 26, 2006, five buffalo on the Heider farm were killed in a lightning strike, including Miracle's Second Chance.
Lightning, formerly known as Kenahkihinén (Kĕ-Nah‛-Ki-Nĕn, from the Lenape language meaning 'Watch Over Us'), a male white buffalo, was born November 12, 2006, at Woodland Zoo in Farmington, Pennsylvania. On May 31, 2008, a third white calf was born to a normal brown two-year-old at the National Buffalo Museum, Jamestown, North Dakota.
On May 12, 2011, a white buffalo was born near Greenville, Texas during a thunderstorm on the ranch of Arby Littlesoldier, a great-great grandson of Sitting Bull. A naming ceremony and dedication is scheduled for June 29, 2011 during which the male calf will officially be given the title "Lightening Medicine Cloud." Public ceremonies are now being arranged.
There are Youtube pictures of two White Buffalo at a farm (Cordova Family) in El Prado, New Mexico, one male and one female. It is not known if there are full blood bison. Date of their births is unknown at this time. A picture of a white buffalo outside the New Mexico state penitentiary has surface the penitentiary does raise buffalo, more research is needed.
The Lamont Ranch (Monte and Lana Factnacht) in New Mexico states they had a white male buffalo born in Sept. 2007. A story they posted states they had bought the buffalo from the Mexico government. They raise Yak’s as well as other animals. There was Albino White buffalo born in Royal George, Colorado date unknown from internet source google “white Buffalo born”.
There are three white buffalo said to be in the Santa Barbara area of California as told at a Bear Dance in Sept. 2009 by an Elder of the Chumash tribe. Son of Big Medicine “Little Medicine”) born albino in 1937 (to 1949) sent to the National zoo in Washington D.C. Six calves where born to the big delta (Alaska) herd from 1939 to 1958. All died within weeks of being born. The Big Delta herd apparently was a stronghold for the recessive gene during this time and for the next fifteen years as well. In 1961, three more white calves were born, but all of them disappeared within three months. In 1963 two more were born, one only lasted the customary three months, and the other didn't make it through the winter. The twelfth was seen in 1973. Government officials tried to capture it to send it to a zoo in Anchorage, but were unsuccessful. It too, didn't make it through the year. This was the last white bison seen in the Alaska herd.
In 1996 On April 27, on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota, a white buffalo calf was born at Joe Merrival's ranch. The calf, named "Rainbow", only lived for 25 hours before dying of the scours, a diarrhea-like condition. The very next month, on May 9, another white calf, "Medicine Wheel" was born on the same ranch. Both of the calves born at the Merrival ranch were accused of being buffalo-cow hybrids but genetic testing has, I think, since disproved this. I don't know at this time whether "Medicine Wheel" changed colors or even still lives. On June 17, the month after "Medicine Wheel" was born in South Dakota, Paul Shirek found a white female calf in the grass at the Shirek buffalo farm near the Michigan state line. The calf was weak and had neurological problems. Despite the help of a Veterinary Clinic the animal's condition deteriorated and it died on July 20.

September 27, 2001 On behalf of the O'Rourke Family, I am honored to be allowed to announce the birth of another sacred white buffalo calf. Born on the Double E Buffalo Ranch in Vanderbilt Michigan on August 7, 2001, this female calf is now healthy and strong and already beginning the color changes as foretold in the Lakota, Dakota, Nakota Sioux prophecies and the stories of many Native American Nations.

Ranch in North Dakota 2002 The first white calf in the Kirks' Bentinck Bison Ranch herd was born Aug. 17, and the last one came Sept. 2. Two of them are snow-white bulls with ice-blue eyes. The heifer is white with dark eyes. The youngest one is a bull calf that has a dark patch on the top of his head and has dark eyes. None is an albino. Already, the calves are showing personality. Debbie Kirk said the heifer calf likes to get in with the bulls and kick up her heels, showing off. "I think she knows she's cute," she said. "The other looks so suave with his hair."

The Vernon County Broadcaster VIROQUA- Wisconsin The birth of a white buffalo calf is more than a genetic rarity to American Indians. Such a calf was born on a farm near Viroqua on June 30, 2007. The white male buffalo calf is owned by Melvin Young and his son Mike. Adding to the calf's legacy is its lineage: The calf, tentatively called Dakota, is the grandson of a buffalo named Cody, best known for its appearance in "Dances With Wolves." In the movie, Cody appears to be shot by Costner as it charges a Sioux boy, falling just short of trampling him. Cody was owned by Mike Fogel of Houston, Minn.. Asked about the increased attention the white calf could bring to the Youngs, Fogel said they will have to do what they feel is right. Fogel said when he had Cody, Disney offered as much as $200,000 for the buffalo. In the end, Fogel decided not to sell him. "I realized it wasn't the money that was important, it was him," Fogel said. Fogel kept Cody until it died in 2006 at age 19, and he buried Cody on his farm.

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. (CP) - 2005: A rare white buffalo has been born at the Blatz bison ranch in northeastern British Columbia. Ranch owner Karen Blatz said Monday the chances of the birth of a white buffalo are about one in 10 million. The calf was born premature, weighing around nine kilograms, and had to be taken from its mother to be bottle-fed. Blatz said the calf's health continues to improve and he is enjoying the attention. The calf was named Spirit of Peace because he was born in the North Peace country and the calf is a symbol of peace for First Nations.
