Cape Buffalo

There are three subspecies of the cape buffalo or African buffalo: a smaller one lives in the forested areas of western and central Africa; a medium one in the grassy areas of the Sahara and east to the Sudan; and a larger one in the savannas of eastern and southern Africa. Heavily built, the African buffalo stands five feet, six inches at the shoulder and can weigh as much as 1,800 pounds. Although unusual, African Buffalo that live on the Sernegeti can gather in groups that can exceed 2,000 members. More often than not, herds consist of several hundred members. The herd is dominated by an old bull, but is led by a cow. Gestation lasts 330 to 345 days, after which a single calf is born.
