The Art of Hunting Buffalo
CHAPTER ONE

NATURAL HISTORY
OF THE AFRICAN BUFFALO

“It is interesting to note how herd behaviour
will influence the hunter’s approach or
choice of trophy. While a herd of buffalo
may seem to be simply that, observation
of a particular herd over any period of
time will illustrate that within that herd,
the matriarchal structure effects typical
behaviour of every animal, even the bulls.”
