African Buffalo

The jet - black Cape Buffalo is a magnificent sight on the African savannah. Its large, curved horns on the forehead are truly eye - catching. Usually, it's a peaceful grazer, enjoying life at a slow pace. But when it senses a stranger approaching the herd, it shows its might. With its black muzzle, it can detect intruders accurately. If a strange buffalo gets too close, it quickly charges at a gallop, stopping just short of the intruder, lowering its head, snorting angrily, and pawing the ground. Its huge horns are so intimidating that most intruders flee right away.

If you're observing the African Cape Buffalo, keep a safe distance. It's usually peaceful when grazing but can get aggressive when it feels the herd is threatened. Don't try to approach it or make sudden movements. When watching it, use binoculars or a long - range camera. There's no need for any maintenance as it's a wild animal. Just enjoy watching it in its natural habitat and respect its space.
