Buffalo
A buffalo takes a dip in a stream, as a relief from the sweltering Summer Heat....
Buffalo are herd animals. In the wild, bulls will form separate herds or bachelor groups and join with the cow herd only during the breeding season. However, buffalo raised domestically will not separate by gender, and will remain in the same herd throughout the year. Buffalo have a highly structured social "pecking" order determined by seniority in the herd, size, and age. The pecking order is much more rigorously enforced than in domestic cattle, and ignoring the social status can result in serious injury. Buffalo have a higher tolerance to cold temperatures than domestic cattle, and therefore exhibit greater winter hardiness. Because of the buffalo's superior digestion of low quality feeds, it may be better suited for production on marginal rangelands.
You live in a very beautiful part of the world so far away from me. I enjoy your pictures and prose, a will enjoy seeing and reading more of the same. I will join your group of followers!
