centrism is when the inconvenient fact of the indigenous people who cared about the buffalo population aren't even worth a mention.
(it occurs to me the possibility that the buffalo are explicitly a stand-in for indigenous people, but please don't try to tell me that makes it better. otherwise, i'd like to show you a picture of some random frankish warrior and tell you that both the mongols and the europeans have use of the european peninsula. lottttta different nations and peoples to be mashing together into one representative that can't have revolutionary intent right there.)
Unfortunately I regret to inform you the buffalo are native stand ins yes. The show is... Exceedingly bad about racializing characters.
There is for instance one zebra character on the show. Her introductory episode was about everyone doing racism towards her. She lives in a Darkest Africa themed voodoo shack in the middle of the Bad Forest, speaks in rhyme, and has gold bands around her neck. She was introduced in season like... 2, and the show ended on 9 seasons, and no other characters as racialized as her showed up
