From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I recognize this photo has being from the national archives and Library of Canada, so even though it is PD, you should try and dig up the accession number Fawcett5 01:47, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
It says 'head' in the description - does it mean herd, I don't get how that sentence makes sense.
- "Head" is a unit of counting livestock as in, "50 head of cattle." The caption could have read, "a few hundred individual bison." A2Z 20:19, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] size
it's very small for a featured picture. --Ysangkok 20:46, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- Sometimes that's all we have got with historic pictures. But content beats size every time. If you are lucky and dig around a bit with the clues given in the source link, you can sometimes find a archive with a larger version that you could upload (often the link to the big archived raw Tiff, isn't as obvious as the jpeg that was originally uploaded). -- Solipsist 23:32, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
