Description: Buffalo, also known as Cape Buffalo or Syncerus caffer, have arrived at a waterhole in the Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa. These majestic animals live in small family groups or large herds. As herbivores, they feed on grass, leaves, and herbs. Their main predators are lions, but hyenas and crocodiles also pose a threat. Although usually peaceful, injured or cornered Cape Buffalo can become extremely dangerous.
