How many cattle are there, compared to the buffalo?
There may have been vast herds of buffalo, but there are
a lot of cattle - both in N. America and in S. America,
where cattle are grazed on lands that used to be jungle.

Remember, out west they irrigate, pump water for drinking,
provide grain and hay in the winter, and do a lot just to make
sure that there are more cattle than the land could carry on
it's own (it is called agriculture).
