   • 1889, William T. Hornaday, The Extermination of the American Bison‎^[1]:

     […] I am sure that the American bison is the grandest of them all. His only rivals for the kingship are the Indian bison, or gaur (Bos gaurus), of Southern India, and the aurochs, or European bison, both of which really surpass him in height, if not in actual balk also.
