Buffalo are large members of the Bovidae family. There are two types of buffalo: the African or Cape buffalo and the Asian water buffalo. They are dark gray or black animals that look a lot like bulls.

Buffalo are often confused with bison. Early American settlers called bison “buffalo” because the animals are similar in appearance. They weigh a massive 1,500 to 2,650 lbs. The African buffalo is smaller, but they are still quite impressive in size. They are aptly named, for they spend most of their time in water.

Their hooves are extra wide and prevent them from sinking into mud at the bottom of ponds, swamps and rivers. The African buffalo is never far from water. Habits Buffalo are social animals and live in groups called herds. Water buffalo herds are segregated by gender. Young males stay with the maternal herd for about three years, and then they join a male herd.

Maternal herds have up to 30 females and their offspring. Male herds have up to 10 members. African buffalo herds are mostly of mixed gender. They do have a few all-male herds, but these usually consist of old males. Their favorite foods are grass and herbs, but water buffalo will also eat aquatic plants. Both African and Asian buffalo will eat shrubs and trees when they can’t find grass or herbs to eat.
