NAL's Buffalo Herd
NAL's buffalo herd, numbering 26 head in 1973, grazes in a 45-acre field adjacent to Road "D" on the NAL site. Visitors are welcome to view the animals from two pull-off spots on Road "D" which curves southwesterly off Batavia Road toward the Central Laboratory area just beyond the intersection of Batavia Road and Eola Road. The herd is a combination of the two original groups brought to NAL - one from Colorado, the other from Springfield, Illinois. Four calves were born into the herd in the summer of 1972. The main building of the Meson Area and the berm of the Neutrino Line can be seen in the background of the photo.
