wallows, sandy wallows Explanation: Wallowing is when bison roll on the prairie to give themselves "dust baths." Wallowing creates a saucer-like depression called a wallow out on the prairie. Wallows were once a common features of the plains; usually these wallows are dust bowls without any vegetation. - http://www.nps.gov/wica/naturescience/bison-wallow.htm -------------------- Bulls and cows at all ages will wallow in dry areas where they can stir clouds of dust. Sometimes they will wallow in wet areas as well. Dust, which permeates the coat, probably minimizes the effects of insects. The wallowing seems to be important in grooming, sensory stimulation, alleviating skin irritation, and reproductive behavior. - http://www.okprairie.com/Bison.htm ---------------------------------- A horse wallowing in a sandy wallow - http://www.lemen.com/imageWallow1.html wallow - http://www.thefreedictionary.com/wallowing buffalo wallow - grafika - http://goo.gl/neIz |
