Notes
Description
A sprawling suburban house in Santa Fe is not the kind of home where a buffalo normally roams, but then Veryl Goodnight and Roger Brooks are not your ordinary animal lovers. Over a hundred years after Veryl's ancestors Charles and Mary Ann Goodnight hand raised two baby buffalo to help save the species from extinction, the sculptor and her husband adopt an orphaned buffalo calf of their own. Against the tragic backdrop of the old American West, "A Buffalo in the House" tells the story of a household that redefines family in a really big way.
