Om arten

Visent eller europeisk bison är en av de två idag levande arterna i släktet Bison. Den europeiska arten är i jämförelse med sin amerikanska släkting bisonoxen mindre i storlek, har något längre svans och kortare päls. Den lever kvar i Europa, medan arten amerikansk bisonoxe avdelades efter utvandring till Amerika för mellan 195.000 och 135.000 år sedan via landbron vid nuvarande Berings sund.
