Undaunted Danger - Cape Buffalo by Daniel Smith

This Cape Buffalo is master of the herd. He is standing in the foreground as the morning sun gives way and reveals the water hole in the distance. Undaunted Danger by Daniel Smith, available for sale from Art Barbarians African Wildlife Art Gallery.

"The horns of African buffalo are very peculiar. A characteristic feature of them is the adult bull’s horns have fused bases, forming a continuous bone shield referred to as a “boss’, which can not always be penetrated even by a rifle bullet. From the base, the horns diverge, then bend down, and then smoothly curve upwards and outwards. The distance between the ends of the horns of large bulls is more than a meter. The young buffalo horn boss forms fully only upon reaching the age of five to six years. In cows, the horns are, on average, 10–20% smaller, and the boss is less prominent. Forest buffalo horns are much smaller and weaker than those of the Savannah buffaloes and are almost never fused. They rarely reach a length of even 16 inches.
