On the other hand, in prehistoric times, it's estimated that there were about 60 million bison. I have not looked for any studies quantitatively comparing bison farts to Holstein farts, and don't intend to.

Interesting that these big windy animals spread across North America from Siberia just before the big Ice Age ended....hmmmm.
