Texas Hunt Lodge: Stop the Hunting of Sacred White Buffalo
Native Americans have always had many legends that span over thousands of years. Yet despite the many legends, the most sacred one involves the birth of a White Buffalo calf. There are countless stories about the White Buffalo, with a slightly different tale being told for every tribe. But the message is clear in all of them; The Native Americans see the white buffalo calf as a sign to begin mending life's sacred hoop, to connect with each another and with our Mother Earth whom we must stop destroying. The White Buffalo is a very sacred sign and symbol to the Native Americans.
Although the buffalo in the U.S. are no where near the great numbers that they used to be, when they were flourishing they used to number between 60 - 80 million head. Under those favorable conditions, the chances of such an unusual white buffalo appearing was about 1 in 10 million. But although there are only approximately around 125,000 buffalo today, the odds against one being born have increased dramatically. There has been a spurt of white buffaloes born over the past 50 years or so. Native Americans are taking this as a sign that something profound is happening to our planet as well as to humanity.
Understanding just how important the white buffalo is then, it becomes extremely hideous and despicable that a canned hunting outfit in Texas called the Texas Hunt Lodge is now offering the chance to kill these majestic and spiritually significant creatures. For $13,500, a person can go there and do exactly that. This practice must be stopped immediately before anymore are killed for the sake of a mere trophy to hang on their wall.
Please take a minute to sign the following petition on ending the despicable practice of killing a white buffalo (bison) at the Texas Hunt Lodge for the fee of $13,500. These are canned hunts which means the animal has no chance for escape and is in an enclosed area that makes it extremely easy to kill them. They are also usually very used to the presence of humans so they do not have the fear of man as would a wild bison. The White Buffalo has a very spiritual significence to the Native American culture.
PETITION : End the hunting of the Sacred White Buffalo at the Texas Hunt Lodge immediately
The video below shows a baby white buffalo with his family in Greenville, Texas. His name is Lightning Medicine Cloud and he lives on the ranch of Arby Litte Soldier. Arby Little Soldier is the great grandson of Sitting Bull.
Thank you for starting this petition, I heard this awful news yesterday and wanted to do something to help, peace love and light to you all..xx
AND THE WHITE ELK AS WELL (see the premium hunt still being advertised for White Elk, while the White Buffalo hunt page was removed from public access -- though they no-doubt do offer the hunt to private inquirers). There is no reason to target that which is rare and symbolically sacred.
This is very upsetting especially to the Native American people...I am so upset with this person who is showing so much stupidity by doing this..i don't care if they are his buffalo or his property!!!!!!
This is horrible! How dare they!

A petition is not going to stop the hunts on this private ranch, they are doing it & raising them for $. So we would have to raise the $, to buy every one they put up for a hunt. And that would just continue to raise the prices of each hunt, as some of these Rich Hunters have $ to burn. We could never do it.
And Legislation to stop canned hunts passing in the State of Texas, is going to be near impossible. I HATE this, they ARE Sacred, there are too many stories, on how when a large number of them appear, it is a sign that a cleansing is going to happen. I wish I knew the answer, I wish there was a way to stop them. I just don't see it happening. ;(
that ashame to kill such beautiful animals
hould make the hunter go after the buffalo with a stick as a weapon. Then watch as the buffalo stomps them to peices....
Any CANNED HUNT IS WRONG and the so called sportsmen who condone it are WRONG AS WELL
What the hell is wrong with these people? There is a special place in hell just for them... or they will come back and suffer that which they have inflicted and worse!
I have to say the sport of killing another living creature other than for nessessity has baffled my conscious mind & tormented my unconscious thoughts & feelings for as long as I can remember, & it just catches me in the craw & there's something terribly wrong with society for us to think,breath,& believe in this manner...
This is absolutely despicable. They have no respect for the beliefs of others and no respect for life. They fail to see we are all connected and what affects one affects all others in the chain of life. The day is coming when people like these destroyers of life will get theirs. I for one cannot wait for that day.
Are these people just plane stupid or what are they ever going to learn the laws of Nature. Well I guess you can't fix stupid so lets hunt them down from a helicopter but give them a little head start. Freaking idiots.
White buffalo is an American bison (American buffalo) that is considered to be sacred signs in several Native American religions, and thus have great spiritual importance in those cultures and is visited for prayer and other religious ceremonies.
I'm so glad that you started this petition. This needs to be stopped now.
Anyone who would kill any of God's creatures should be shot and skinned themselves. God did not put these creatures on this Earth for us to murder.
They will be grubs in their next life. So sad
You have taken everything from our people...Now you mock what is (Holy)spiritual...Why? For what?
All of these hunt clubs need to be made illegal. That's not hunting...it's murdering innocent animals. Disgusting.
Buffalo are not wild game. In most cases, they are like grazing cattle living in domesticated environments like cattle. They do not have the instincts to run and hide like Deer. They feed on grasslands out in the open, again not like deer who graze at night.
I know ranchers who raise them. They come like pets to feed. This person is not a hunter with his crossbow displayed in the picture.
Thank you, White Wolf, for setting up this petition. I will be adding it to a list of "action" sites on this issue that will go out to my FB friends and extended family members as well! This has GOT TO STOP, and NOW!
Yes, thank you White Wolf. I think a time of great change is coming, and ignorant people who are fighting the change do these sorts of unspeakable things in an effort to stop the change they fear. I think the white buffalo have come to show the world that we must open our hearts to the change, or we will be like this stunted man and his canned hunts. I know it seems unlikely that he can be stopped, but sometimes if there is enough of an outcry Spirit moves and souls awaken.
not a fan of "canned hunting" or any "hunting farms", suggestion; use some of that native casino money and buy all the buffalo's back
WTF This is like burning the Bible, the Koran, The Torah. The big fat white boy standing so proudly behind does not have a brain in his head let alone a heart in his chest.
My heart cries!
Thank you, White Wolf, for setting up this petition.
This has GOT TO STOP NOW ! ! !
It is absolutely despicable. These Govs have no respect for the beliefs of others and no respect for life. They still do not to see that we are all connected ! What affects one, affects all others in our chain of life.
The day is coming soon when people like these destroyers of life
will get theirs. I personally one cannot await this day !
I know the time of great change is coming, and these ignorant people who are fighting the change, do these sorts of unspeakable things in an effort to stop the change which they fear.
I think the white buffalo has come to show the world that we must open up our hearts to the change, or we will be like this stunted man and his canned hunts. I am aware it seems unlikely that he can be stopped, but sometimes if there is enough of an outcry Spirit moves and souls awaken. ! ! !
S T O P THE K I L L E R S OF THE W H I T E BUFFALO ! ! ! A´HO

Sadly, the comment above by Tsunami Bunny is true. This canned hunting is on private property and there are no laws being broken. As pathetic as that is, it will probably not change as the administration in Texas is notoriously insensitive to things such as this. It is beyond me how anyone could kill such a magnificent animal for "sport"...no matter what it's color. Bravo to those who have spoken up and may the spirit of the White Buffalo be with you all.
Wow this needs to stop now. The white buffalo is a very sacred animal to the Native Americans.Thanks to White Wolf for getting this started. May the great spirit watch over the Rest of the sacred white buffalo on this hunting farm or what ever the hell it is.
well I think that anyone who raises animals to kill isn't really hunting. When you bait or herd animals, example deer, then that is not true hunting. Also when you are not hunting for population control or food then it is wrong to me.
I personally think hunting farms should be band. It is a shame how humans have to destroy everything.
Is there anything the American's won't try and kill? The Great White Hunter ... bah ... the Great White Idiot is more like it. You aren't hunting if the prey is forced to stand in front of you while you shoot it. To kill something so scacred out of pure ignorance is embarassing to everyone.
Let them show the world of their intelligance by killing a mybe one of a kind animal.Animal,now theres a discription that fits the hunter.Wow how about that.
Since early times the White man has desecrated our Religion , should we not go out and shoot their symbols of religion ?? I can see the headlines " Indian on death row for shooting Jesus Christ !! "
This is one of the sickest pics ever. What a beautiful & majestic animal to be cruelly slaughtered for ?sport? What is legal & illegal never ceases to amaze me. I'd prefer to see the fat idiot standing there speared. Stick his head over a fireplace.
This is to the DUMB white guy who thought he is a man. to me you are just another asshole. what gives you the right to kill a white buffalo? how would you like it if I went to your town and messed up your church? what you did is religious prosecution. I think you should go mess up your own religious things. and leave everyone else alone.I was raised to have respect for other peoples religion no matter what. so what did your parents teach you?????? nothing You are not a man. who would kill a animal in a fenced in area? that my friends is what you call a chicken shit>ect.ect.ect.
The foolish White Man way, of killing for the sport of it, and a Sacred White Buffalo at that! What a shame, and a slap in the face of native peoples this is! Most likely, he just wants it for his trophy room.. Probably don't even eat the meat!! Just foolish killing , to be killing, Like the Old days, when these desecrating Thorns in the side of Mother Earth, all but wiped the buffalo out of existence, with their reckless ways!! Killing,taking hides, and leaving the rest to rot!Now the WHITE BUFFALO!?!? Most likely this fool will need to watch his back VERY CLOSELY, for a LONG time!!! :( I'm Thoroughly upset about THIS, and this sort of reckless crap!!! Whitebear..
There is simply no cause to kill a white buffalo! Red
Thunder bird is coming and you will not like what he will do to you.
I have several buffalo cows and if I had $13,500 I would love to have a white one too. Ours are very well behaved and are big pets. I just cant believe someone would hurt the amazing creatures...
These beauties are alive with a consciousness, how can anyone with a heart hunt and kill them? They are also very important to our eco system. I am so happy and proud to sign this petition, and very hopeful that the end of all these nightmarish and heartless hunts comes quick!
It is sad on many levels but the one I find saddest is a "man" feels like a man killing this way, a caged animal at point blank, PATHETIC. A real man knows how to hunt in the wild and kill in one shot. A pathetically unmanly man has to pay a ridiculous amount of money to kill an animal like this. Go find your manliness and grow some balls!
Ball less mf to shoot any thing caged. Too bad they could not shoot back.
Absolutely bloody disgusting that this butchery is still going on in this day and age!
I think this is horrible, just, horrible sick ppl out for "Blood Money" they trow away "HOPE"... and hang it on a wall..
This is surely against Gods law. It is said that anyone that kills a sacred animal will have bad luck and unhappiness the rest of their live! I surely hope so. All canned hunts need to be stopped! These men and, yes children, have to be men with no consciences and no heart. They are small minded, self centered people.
GIVE US NAMES OF THE "PARTICIPANTS" AS WELL AS THE "BUSINESS PEOPLE" WHO MAKE MONEY FROM MURDERING ANIMALS THAT TRUST. SICK MF"S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for letting us know about this horrible crime. I will gladly sign the petition , I hate hunters of all kinds and they should be punished and an end to all hunting for sport. I have no problem with hunting for food for your family but to senseless kill precious animals is an outrage.
Takesa lot of guts and glory to find a grazing animal and shoot it long range. These nonethinking nonefeeling goons should be hunted instead.
Takes a real big man to do this.Things like this make me ashamed to be part of the white race,slaughtered millions but we are never satisfied.Makes me sick.
Even a hunt in the wild with a high-powered rifle and a scope if a canned hunt. When it man against beast, the purpose of nature can be fulfilled, but this is simply ego and fantasy, all rolled into a meaningless act that reveals a man's true character. Oh, this fool can think he has conquered a wild beast, but he has not. Look at this video to see the true nature of a warrior spirit facing an animal spirit and finding the real strength a man...
