W<\/span>ater buf\u00adfa\u00adlo have not been seen as wild ani\u00admals in Europe for over 100,000 years. From the dis\u00adtant epoch before the last ice age there is evi\u00addence of the now extinct Euro\u00adpean water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo (Bubalus mur\u00adren\u00adsis<\/em>) from the Mediter\u00adranean and the Rhine Valley.<\/p>\nAfter the last ice age, water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo were found in large parts of South and South\u00adeast Asia, per\u00adhaps also in Mesopotamia. Today there are only small remain\u00ading pop\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtions of these wild ani\u00admals in India, Bhutan, Nepal and Thailand.<\/p>\nOver 5,000 years ago, water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo were domes\u00adti\u00adcat\u00aded in at least two dif\u00adfer\u00adent loca\u00adtions, India and south\u00adern Chi\u00adna. Their descen\u00addants, the domes\u00adtic water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo, are now kept in large areas of South Asia and in north\u00adern South Amer\u00adi\u00adca. Domes\u00adtic water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo also live in Europe. They were intro\u00adduced in the ear\u00adly Mid\u00addle Ages, around 1,300 years ago. The domes\u00adtic buf\u00adfa\u00adlo liv\u00ading in Europe are descend\u00aded from the Indi\u00adan buf\u00adfa\u00adlo. They are main\u00adly found in the Balka\u00adns and Italy. There they deliv\u00ader the milk for the pop\u00adu\u00adlar moz\u00adzarel\u00adla cheese.<\/p>\nWater buf\u00adfa\u00adlo are fru\u00adgal ani\u00admals. You can use for\u00adage of low\u00ader qual\u00adi\u00adty than the domes\u00adtic cat\u00adtle that we nor\u00admal\u00adly use. Above all, how\u00adev\u00ader, they can devel\u00adop habi\u00adtats that domes\u00adtic cat\u00adtle would avoid: wet\u00adlands, swampy ter\u00adrain, bog areas. Water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo are good at swim\u00adming and like to be around and in the water. They are sen\u00adsi\u00adtive to heat because they only have a small num\u00adber of sweat glands. Buf\u00adfa\u00adlo cows can give birth and raise their calves health\u00adily in the pas\u00adture when there is snow. Bulls can weigh up to 1,000 kg, cows can weigh up to 700 kg.<\/p>\nIn the nation\u00adal park, water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo are not released into the wild or kept as a sub\u00adsti\u00adtute for the wild form that has long been extinct. Wher\u00adev\u00ader they graze they replace domes\u00adtic cat\u00adtle. Parts of the nation\u00adal park must con\u00adtin\u00adue to be man\u00adaged. In this way, the land\u00adscape is kept open and struc\u00adtured. Habi\u00adtats for dif\u00adfer\u00adent species are there\u00adby kept free or cre\u00adat\u00aded. Whether this works bet\u00adter with water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo than with the cat\u00adtle kept oth\u00ader\u00adwise is to be test\u00aded here.<\/p>\nThe Wolf\u00adgang Dehn\u00adert farm from Gartz\/Oder keeps a herd of around 100 water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo on the grass\u00adland between Friedrich\u00adsthal and Gartz\/Oder.<\/p>\nYou can usu\u00adal\u00adly find the water buf\u00adfa\u00adlo herd in the Friedrich\u00adsthaler Pold\u00ader (5\/6), east of Bun\u00addesstra\u00dfe 2 between Friedrich\u00adsthal and Gartz\/Oder (see map).
