Would You Bite Into a Raw Bison Liver? | Expedition Raw

What am I supposed to do with this? I am a white kid from Brooklyn, and I'd never been to an Indian Reservation before. Is this the liver? Take a bite. The bite like this. I'll never... just like this. You all have to now. It's completely sterile. There you go.

The purpose of this buffalo hunt is to help feed a few families in the community. The Bison were everything to the Lakota. There's so much of a connection between what we are and what we eat and where we come from. Close. Oh man, oh that hit me. Oh man, oh don't lose faith in me.

Okay, my personal reason for joining the team on this buffalo hunt was to understand how one animal can be utilized to show that nothing goes to waste. He's turned; he's right here, right here in front of us. Which way is this head? On this side or this side? The group had me take the first shot, and in case I missed, a seasoned hunter was right next to me to take the backup kill shot.

It's critical, once you wound a buffalo, that you actually kill it because it's very difficult for a wounded buffalo to survive out in the wild. Ultimately, Ranger Jamie Big Crow was the one who took the final kill shot. The reason for butchering the buffalo right there and then was because they needed to use every single part before it started rotting.

Oh God, oh God, it's going to smell good. Yeah, keep going, keep going. Oh God, it was very challenging for me to be sitting there with that knife, but I knew it was something that I had to do. And when you're walking in someone else's shoes, you do your best not to ask questions but to just do so with an open heart.

Go to the bank, go to the bank. It's ultimate consequence out there. There are no roads; there is no access. Hippers are defensive. I think the most important thing about them is they are incredibly powerful.
