just the cattle. The pronghorn is another, native animal that has suffered from the plague of feral horses. Direct competition.
As for bison and emu, I have eaten both, and both are quite good. Bison is frequently raised, like cattle, in this country, on farms for that purpose, as are emu. Ostrich is another popular farm animal that is enjoyed by many people.
The bottom line, I suspect, is that you would like me not to eat any animals at all. Sorry, but I'll be disappointing you.
