Assam buffalo

The first glimpse of the wild water buffalo of Northern India, the largest of all wild buffaloes in the world:

As u can see, they are much larger than the cape buffalo, as well as common water buffaloes.

Title?

Is there a reason for the capitalization of the second word in this title, even though Wikipedia:Naming conventions says not to capitalize second and subsequent nouns? I'm guessing this is in error, but wanted to check here first. Heimstern Läufer 23:10, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've moved it since I got no reason for it to be capitalized. Heimstern Läufer 22:15, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why is the water buffalo an endangered species if there are 141,000,000 in Asian alone? Benfranklinlover 04:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The wild population is endangered. There are plenty of domesticated ones. Steve Dufour 07:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't it be seperated by species?

We now know that the Swamp Buffalo (Bubalus carabanensis) has 48 chromosomes, and the River Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) has 50 chromosomes, why are we labeling them both as Water buffalo? Wouldn't it be more accurate to put the Swamp buffalos in Swamp Buffalo, and the River buffalos in River buffalo? Dionyseus 22:39, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Tiger Hunting Article needs to be edited. A single tiger CAN'T kill a frull grown buffalo! That's just stupid. There is no evidence at all to support this.

Why you think so?????????????????
