IUCN status: Endangered, only 4,000-8,000 left in the wild

The banteng (/ˈbæntɛŋ/; Javanese: banthèng), also known as tembadau, (Bos javanicus) is a species of wild cattle found in Southeast Asia.

 

This is a semi-wild population whereby our Wildlife Department breed and reintroduced back to the wild. Some how they always visit their previous feeding area for a few hours daily, choosing to come and go at will @ back to the nearby forest to look for food and rest.
