非洲水牛是非常危险的动物，尤时受伤时、落单或是和小牛在一起的母牛， 都非常具攻击性， 会突然攻击人。凶猛的水牛连狮子都敬畏三分，若非是群狮，狮子也难独力猎杀一只水牛。非洲水牛是群居动物， 通常数百只在一起。非洲水牛团的首领不是公的，而是最强壮的母牛。非洲水牛每天都会到水源区喝水，太热时，更喜欢泡在水里和泥巴里，因此他们绝不出出现在年雨量少于30公分的地方。
These large and powerful creatures are extremely dangerous when threatened. They reach 1.4m in height and can weigh up to 800kg. They are social and form herds, sometimes comprising several hundred buffalo, although older bulls are often seen alone or in small groups. They tend to live near water in grassy areas although they are found in many ohter types of vegetation.
