A photo of a buffalo in the Sabie river close to Skukuza in the Kruger National Park. On the tail of the buffalo there is an injury probably caused by lions.

Did You Know? :hmz:
Between 6 and 9 out of 20 buffalo calfs reach adulthood.

Photographed this fine specimen north of Letaba on the H1-6 during my June trip. He was part of a medium sized herd. For me, he has an almost perfect set of horns.
