The Pragmatic Way African Buffalos Organize Their Herds

Buffalo herds have highly-disciplined formations that help protect the majority from predators: the mothers and calves in the middle, the strong in the front, and the sick or injured on the periphery.

[@animalsVisiting]

Lovely small buffalo❤

[@nagaviper1169]

Why thumbs down?

[@Gladiator4Reign]

@2:05min “tail end...”
@2:10min there’s a buffalo on the right. Missing a tail... whaaaat?! Crocodile crossing? Thoughts of what happened???

[@Gladiator4Reign]

Scumfuck McDoucheface I thought that too unless the buffalo and crocodile were perpendicular during a river crossing. Interesting to think about Lol

[@tubularap]

@@Gladiator4Reign - I was looking for a comment about the missing tail. Inconclusive wether by birth or bitten off. If bitten off so clean, a sideways croc seems most likely. Healed well.

[@downbntout]

Looks to me that the tail is forward over his back bc he's takin a dump

[@therogueadmiral]

I noticed that too.

[@prabhakarj931]

Even placing a male 🐃 at the rear must have been evolved after some experience. There are herds with rear end unprotected with the weak and sick.

[@timothylequigan6072]

Iam happy to see over population of buffalo or else animals

[@haloanimalfight]

*Incredible animal fight! These creatures show no mercy in their battle for survival*

[@sh2tllwllw332]

To what extent have humans tried to control their numbers? Sorry for my ignorance.

[@JohnMoore-xf5wy]

They are hunted in three or four countries under very strict supervision and regulations regulations and the lions take their fair share, as usual.

[@CSSpreparations99]

I'm founding a documentary where buffalos migration for water on river and they face different groups of lion

[@ziyad4719]

Your channel like bcc good work

[@aria5614]

I know its a bit dystopian but it does make sense for out in the wild.

[@markeisenhower6422]

2:10 has no tail.

[@azharnaveed9645]

Where are?

[@willthomas7950]

North America on the check in. A football field, fresh grass, and 15 buffalo move out.

[@willthomas7950]

Just get it done 0 point overruled.

[@willthomas7950]

How are my cows doing? Eat on this side.

[@andrewbetances1203]

Did that male mate? If not, the death is as wasteful as the calf would have been.

[@UnchainedAmerica]

hence "expendable bachelors".

[@jmcm152]

If he hasn't mated already, what good is he to the group? The buffalo for the job

[@RaheelPervaiz123]

he didn'tneed to mate because one male can mate the entire herd.

[@JohnMoore-xf5wy]

Better tell the lions. 🙄

[@JohnMoore-xf5wy]

And does.
The Herd Bull.
The Boss.

[@antrinh9919]

The sick and wounded buffaloes are naturally in the back of the herds! Not stratégie... they are not very clever for sure! :=))

[@matthiasfloren2610]

They have been known to muren hunters in tall grass and than attack them. Cape buffalo are not as dumb as you might think
