"Shaggo, the Mighty Buffalo: His Many Adventures" by Richard Barnum is a children's fictional story likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the titular character, Shaggo, a large and powerful buffalo living in a National Park preserve, who experiences feelings of discontent and a longing for freedom. This results in his decision to escape the confines of the park and embark on an adventurous journey that leads him to various encounters with other animals. At the start of the story, Shaggo is approached by younger buffalo calves who invite him to join them for fun activities, but he shows signs of being withdrawn and "queer," reflecting a change in his behavior that leaves his friends puzzled. After realizing that the park feels too small for him, he makes the bold decision to jump over a fence to seek a larger world. However, his leap results in a painful fall into a dark hole where he finds himself trapped, foreshadowing the challenges and surprises that he will face as he continues on his journey. The opening establishes Shaggo as a character filled with curiosity and a desire for exploration, setting the stage for the many adventures that await him.
