These are good
quality U.S. or Canadian buffalo skins that have been tanned in either Canada,
the U.S., or Peru--as
stated on each individual hide. The hides are soft and
supple. See pictures of individual hides further down on this page.
Genus and species: Bison bison.
These buffalo come from ranching operations and are not endangered. They are not subject to CITES, but must be inspected by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service for commercial imports or exports. There are no export restrictions for personal use. The buffalo hides we sell are a by-product of the food industry. The animals are not killed just for their hides.
There are still some wild buffalo running around in northern Canada that are heavily protected. None of the buffalo we sell come from wild herds.

Gallery of Craft Grade Buffalo Hides in Stock
We offer craft grade buffalo hides for people who need more material than commonly found in scrap, but not a full #1 hide. These often have quite a bit of fur on them and permit the making of larger craft items. The areas without fur can be used for buffalo leather. The hides are shown in the gallery below.
