Settlers killed buffalo to force indigenous people into the reservation system. It was a big part of the genocide here, worth looking into if you get the chance.
Isn’t that a water buffalo? Not the same animal as the American Bison (commonly known as the American Buffalo.) I think once they have a 200 year old city named for them, you just have to accept that that’s what they’re called.

No but the American Buffalo is also called a buffalo which is also a correct term.

or as you woul call it a water bison…
Also the city was not on land, which had American bison, so no it is not named after the animal.
All the icons are American Buffalo though.
