Original: Just like cows, bison graze, biting off grass, shoots and leaves.

Corrected (simple): Like cows, bison graze by biting off grass, shoots, and leaves.

Why this is better (easy steps):strong>

  • We use "Like cows" to say bison are similar to cows.
  • We add "by" to show how they graze (the way they eat).
  • We put a comma before the last thing in the list: "shoots, and leaves." That makes the list easy to read.

Another correct version: Just like cows, bison graze, biting off grass, shoots, and leaves.

Both corrected sentences are good. The first one is a little clearer for young readers.
