The Cape buffalo, also known as the African buffalo, is a large, powerful bovine native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is considered one of the "Big Five" game animals due to its size, strength, and unpredictable nature. Cape buffaloes are known for their distinctive, fused horns that form a continuous bone shield across the top of their head.
These animals are herbivores and are often found in large herds, making them a key species in the grassland and savanna ecosystems. They are also known for their aggressive behavior when threatened, making them a formidable presence in the African wilderness.

Cape buffaloes are very social and live in large herds that can number in the hundreds.
They have been known to remember where waterholes are located over vast distances and periods.
When threatened, the herd forms a circle around the young, horns facing outwards towards the danger.
Despite their appearance, Cape buffaloes have never been domesticated due to their unpredictable nature.
Lions are among the few predators of adult Cape buffaloes, often requiring the cooperation of the pride to take one down.
