Buffalo and Egrets, Kakadu

The water buffalo, also called the domestic water buffalo or Asian water buffalo, is a large bovid originating in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. Today, it is also found in Europe, Australia, North America, South America and some African countries.

They were imported in the Nineteenth Century to supply meat to remote Northern settlements. The buffalo and the settlements were ultimately abandoned in 1949.
