Where does he feel at his best?

Meadows with large, shady trees and provide a shelter for shade. A pool, sloping edges and not too deep, they also love it.

What does he like to eat?

The diet of buffalo is similar to that of cattle. Unlike cattle, buffalo can also graze under water: they can therefore eat all kinds of aquatic plants. They live on grass and leafy water vegetation.

than cow's milk. Apart from being used as drinking milk, it is mainly used to produce butter and cheese, such as mozzarella. Indian butter is called ghee there and is liquid
