    I used to live in Australia. Some friends who owned a ranch invited us come watch a round up of water buffalo. These were wild, feral animals, and I've never seen creatures so fearsome, mean, and aggressive. It was a battle between man and beast, and at time, it seemed the beasts nearly took the day.
    On the way home to the States, we visited Laos. As our 737 neared the runway, a couple hundred feet off the ground, we flew over a road. I was looking down and spotted a little kid on the back of a water buffalo looking up at the plane. This boy controlled his tranquil, docile creature with only a length of string tied to a ring in the buffalo's nose.
    I believe water buffalo are the only animals with such an extreme difference between wild and tame. They are like two different species.

    Coming from India, I used both Buffallo and Cow milk in my life for a significant time, I feel Buffallo milk is way tastier than Cow's. Especially the butter. You get more butter from the buffalo milk and God that is one tasty butter. Buffallos are the main source of the Milk in many Asian countries from India to Philippines. And yes, they're very affectionate.

    Its a trip how they get shaggy in cold weather. True Mozzarella cheese comes from them. The milk is super high in protein compared to cow milk and has a thicker feel from what I have read. I would love to try the milk.

    Criar búfalo é a melhor opção para investimento na roça, esses bichinhos são tão meigos que quem lida se apaixona por eles.

      ​@@dv9239they are riverine buffaloes, Italian breed. More closely related to Indian buffaloes than South East Asian buffaloes.

    Sorry for being disrupt. Please don't kill them for meat 🙏🏽 they have more value as dairy, work animal and even tourism. I grew up close to these as animal. They help me so much with kind and calm demeanor. Sorry for any disrespectful.

      I came to comment the same. Meat? So you're slaughtering the water buffalo? But yet showing affection like their pets? Strange, and yes I
      also eat meat but I've never seen farmers act affectionate with their "produce"

    Just some spreading the news here!
    jacobs troubles is coming ( Israel formally declares war against Hamas ) If we Christians disappear soon, Your know the Lord has taken us Home! Now we need prayed for the Jews and to get many people saved as possible
    Romans 10:9-13 KJV
    that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
