1_pointer, I think you're right, but I never saw a blonde water buffalo, have you? I guess I could ask the ranch about it sometime and see if it is a cross.

Here's a web page, Am.Waterbuffalo Assoc.

There's a picture from Montana of one brown one there in the winter group with a bunch of black ones.
280 is right too, maybe they are 4h projects in Montana, the water buffalo.

Seems like some people up there try and tame them and people down here try to keep them wild.

Its not a fence like for pets. Its a fence, like putting them on an island. They still run around a lot, act wild a lot.
Who knows, we could probably take one of your 4H project animals, if its young, move it to a more wild enviroment, chase it around, shoot at it, not feed it by hand from a bucket, and it might go back to being wild.
Here's a question for you 280 and others. Suppose a biologist determined a group of deer could live in 100 acres, like some places here, we have a deer every 10 acres in the free range of some counties.
Now, suppose we dig a mote they are unlikely to cross around the 100 acres, suppose its an island, suppose we high fence it. Do those deer become not wild then? I think they become more restricted or impaired in distant movement, but remain wild, if they live on their own in there.
