Males weigh up to 2000 pounds. They are the heaviest land mammal in North America. Mates in the summer-Bull enters the matriarchal herd and displays "flehmen" and "tending behavior" -Flehmen consists of curling the lip back and extending the neck and is thought to enhance the sense of smell- Male "tends" a female by remaining between her and the herd in an attempt to keep the cow isolated - Males threaten and can battle other contenders which can result in butting and horn-locking
