Gary Morse then removed the buffalo. At least that's what I remember.
I also remember that a lawsuit against the Villages was filed because of some incident involving a resident or visitor with a Buffalo. I recall taking pictures of the buffalo from a fence and a bull wasn't photogenic and let me know it by charging but thankfully stopped short of the fence. They are an imposing but beautiful creature. But just like feeding gators, some people ruin it for everyone and the rest of us cannot enjoy their presence.
