Antelope Island is where the Bison live- another triumph for the department of naming Islands!

Seriously though, its not a bad pic - exposure looks good and the Bison is fairly sharp, but it is also quite grainy and not huge in the frame. Is there also a little mist about?

I would suggest that you turn it sepia or at desaturate a bit and maybe try a brushstrokes or similar filter on the background foliage. That way you could make it look old and nostalgic, sort of a 'vanishing west' theme.

Anyway just an idea

I quite like this. There is something surreal about it and at first glance I thought that you might have already tried to make this look like brush strokes on the background.

I took a copy and tried it in Sepia and desaturating and they both looked pretty cool. You might want to give that a run.
