Two are the correct answer to the plural of buffalo.

Buffalo Bill was correct. All three are acceptable, with buffalo being the first choice as the plural.

I was always taught that the plural of buffalo was bison; at least when referring to the American buffalo.

The American Bison is the american form of the Buffalo, not the plural

Just because something is in the dictionary, doesn't mean it's correct. The dictionary people add stuff to the dictionary because it helps them stay in business. If people use words incorrectly or if they use a non-word, then they add it to the dictionary whether it is legitimate or not. The plural for buffalo is buffalo.
