Bison latifrons is an extincthttps://www.dmr.nd.gov/ndfossil/education/pdf/bison.pdf species of bison that lived in North America during the Pleistocene. Also known as the giant bison, it reached a shoulder height of 2.5 metres (8.5 feet), and had horns that spanned over 2 metres (6.5 feet). The known dimensions of the species are much larger than either extant species of bison (it was approximately twice the body size) and other extant large bovids, and B. latifrons may be the largest bovid in the fossil record.[1] References ar: ca:Bison latifrons es:Bison latifrons eu:Bison latifrons fr:Bison latifrons it:Bison latifrons hu:Hossz szarv b l ny nl:Bison latifrons no:Kjempebison pt:Bis o-de-cornos-longos
