| | Water Buffalo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The water buffalo, or "Carabao," is the national animal of the Philippines. | | | Asia is the native home of the water buffalo, with 95% of the world population of water buffalo. | | | Wild-living populations also exist in much of South-east Asia but their origin is uncertain: they may be the descendants of wild Water Buffalo, formerly domesticated ferals or a mixture of both. |

| | <<TOC1>> The Water Buffalo: New Prospects For An Underutilized Animal (1984) |
| | The truth is, however, that unless wounded or severely stressed, the domesticated water buffalo is one of the gentlest of all farm animals. | | | Several researchers report that when water buffaloes are allowed to wallow, their mud-coated skin seems to deter insect and tick ectoparasites and they consequently require greatly reduced treatment with insecticides. | | | Buffaloes are not only extraordinarily strong, they can also work in deep mud that may bog down a tractor. |

| | Of course, water buffalo have been domesticated for thousands of years elsewhere in the world, where they number in excess of 150 million. | | | Yet there is a certain menacing quality about them - doubtless stemming from the fact that they look for all the world like African cape buffalo, the infamous trophy animal that's sent more than a few big-game hunters home in parts. | | | As it turns out, they're the cape buffalo's docile cousin, water buffalo (or, in the unlikely case you prefer Latin, Bubalus bubalis). |
