A combination landscape and cape buffalo image.

 

After eating breakfast at the Londolozi Game Reserve, we proceeded to the Mala Mala Game Reserve. The first sight we saw was a herd of cape buffalo.

 

The African buffalo or Cape buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is a large Sub-Saharan African bovine. Syncerus caffer caffer, the Cape buffalo, is the typical subspecies found in South and East Africa. The adult buffalo's horns are its characteristic feature: they have fused bases, forming a continuous bone shield across the top of the head referred to as a "boss".
