Jun 29, 2020 | 2:12 PM

We’ve heard of moose on the loose before, but bison?

That’s exactly what the Rural Municipality of Corman Park is dealing with after a Dalmeny bison farmer had his fence cut.

The Osler Fire Department warned the public of the escapees, saying “numerous bison” are now on the run in the area.

In a Facebook post Sunday just before 8 p.m., the fire department warned the public of the dangers bison create in the wild.

“Do NOT approach these animals!! They will hurt you!!!” the post writes.
