Скачать или смотреть African Buffalo facts: the CAPE BUFFALO facts | Animal Fact Files

The African Buffalo is also known as the Cape Buffalo or the forest buffalo depending on the subspecies. This video focuses on African Buffalo facts as a whole group rather than their individual parts, though we do give some comparisons between Cape buffalo and forest buffalo! There are a few subspecies of African buffalo, though the most distinct forms are those who live in savannahs, which are more commonly known as Cape buffalos, and those who live in forests, also known as forest buffalos. Cape buffalos are larger and darker in color than forest buffalos. They can handle being out in the sun for long periods of time, but they’ll seek shade and water when possible. Forest buffalos tend to stay in forested places and forage in open areas around water sources.
