The Lakota word for “bull,” is Tatȟáŋka (buffalo/bison) and Čhaŋté šíča (fierce heart). Though the buffalo and bull are different animals, both symbolize strength, provision, and untamed spirit.
The Santa Fe Bull stands as a guardian of the desert, weathered and bold, echoing the ancient heartbeat of the Southwest. His presence reflects endurance, energy, and a watchful grace shaped by time and terrain.
Tatȟáŋka Čhaŋté šíča | Translation: Fierce-Hearted One
