Summary
| Description |
Dansk: Tegningen af Ernest E. Thompson viser indianernes brug af et bisonstyrt. En bisonløber lokker hjorden efter sig ved at imitere bisonens bevægelser og brøl. Dyrene holdes samlet frem mod styrtet ved hjælp af kileformede ledelinjer dannet af varder, som jægerne gemmer sig bagved. Tit stillede de sig op med et stort skind eller andet, som de viftede med, så de skræmte dyrene tilbage mod midten.
English: The drawing of Ernest E. Thompson shows the use of a buffalo jump, here a Blackfoot piskun. A runner lures the herd to follow him by acting like a buffalo. The herd is kept in the middle of the V-formed drive lines by piles of stones. Side hazers are hiding behind the cairns in the drawing. Usually they would rise and wave a hide or blanket to scare the animals from crossing the lines and escape. |
