Ska is named for the Native American word for white.<\/p>\n<p>The Wahpeton Daily News says the yearling weighs between 600 and 700 pounds. Zoo curator Tom Schmaltz says Ska is unique because he&#8217;s the product of recessive genes. White bison are rare. But Ska is not considered a true albino because he doesn&#8217;t have pink eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Ska shares zoo space with three other bison. Schmaltz says they get along great because bison are herd animals and like living together.<\/p>\n<p>The herd also includes Corso, which has served as the mascot of the North Dakota State University football team.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In sports&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK (AP) Once again, the West Fargo and Bismarck St. Mary\u2019s football teams are first in the Class AAA and AA polls; as voted on by members of the North Dakota Associated Press Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association.<\/p>\n<p>First place votes are in parenthesis, followed by the team\u2019s record, and the number of total votes received.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Class AAA<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n1.
