Tatanka is the Lakota word for "Big Beast" or according to other sources it translates to "buffalo" or "He who owns us." For the North Plains people Tatanka meant life. They relied upon the bison for food, clothing, housing, tools and many other things. Always enjoy my trips to Caprock Canyon near Amarillo, TX to observe these magnificent creatures!!
