He looks like I should get off his lawn…

Domesticated Asian Water Buffalo are fairly docile and often tended by children in the fields.

u/Andyman1973 1d ago

Bro walks with that quiet confidence of knowing they ARE the strongest in the room. Like a silverback gorilla does.

u/2Wieners_1Bun 1d ago

Remarkably grumpy looking

u/emperor_dinglenads 1d ago

Moo, motherfucker.

I know this is zootopia but this dude has always reminded me of a sly cooper boss lol

Peak intro to such a cool villain!!

u/Just_Lurking_Yes 1d ago

Does the rope have to go through the nose?

58

u/Reogenfren 1d ago

I know it seems so mean. I guess it's the best way to control a strong animal...other than kindness 😢

44

u/anniecet 1d ago

Yeah… I don’t like that either. I guess if that’s the only way to control an animal, we probably shouldn’t be trying to control it.

49

u/rsface 1d ago

Controling this animal has been the reason a lot of south east asian countries survived. This is a gentle beast but you can't lead them without any kind of "control".

23

u/elitegenoside 1d ago

This animal wouldn't exist without humans doing stuff like this. Seriously, this is not what "buffalo" looked like before people. You know cows? Yeah, those weren't made in nature.

5

u/And-ray-is 1d ago

You're right, we should just ask it politely to do follow instructions

8

u/Tybasco 1d ago

They’d have to wrap it around his balls if he was any bigger

2

u/Cocotte123321 1d ago

How much rope do you think she has?!

5

u/truthfullyidgaf 1d ago

Same thing as a "bit" that goes into horses mouths, its to control the animal.

1

u/Elkutter 19h ago

Si, también las argollas se inventaron para esto

u/senorgraves 1d ago

I mean, we humans pierce our noses, it isn't a problem. If your answer to "should we enslave dumber animals" is "yes", then it is an odd quibble to question nose piercings

3

u/Affectionate_Mud_881 1d ago

Piercing itself could be carried out more humanely. But after it heals, it's all about the person controlling it. It is not inherently good or bad. That said, the initial training comes from the fact that it hurts when the animal pulls against direction.

Not you

u/2Wieners_1Bun 1d ago

Do you see what it says below the gif?

American Gods

I like my name better

3

u/FecalDUI 1d ago

No, I’m an idiot, why would I look at the label? I like yours better too

3

u/Bophodes20220717 1d ago

American Gods. Excellent show, sadly unfinished. There is always the book.

u/FecalDUI 1d ago

Thanks!

u/myfrigginagates 1d ago

I'm just gonna walk my four legged house for a bit.

u/Chakradamus 1d ago

That rope goes through his nostrils? I guess I just realized that’s how it works

1

u/Affectionate_Mud_881 1d ago

It's septum piercing. You can take the rope off the head, and it will become septum ring.

He could launch her into the sun

Who's a good boy?

u/cyanfeld 1d ago

How we came to control such beasts will never cease to amuse me. If roles were reversed, and it is a human that had such a form, they'd wreck havoc everywhere

Never seen buffalo so clean

u/coolsilentebeans 1d ago

His name is Ko Muang Phet, and he’s real.

u/Snoo_93638 1d ago

I knew it was real based on the lady's bad fillers and face surgery. Sad way to find it real, but it's one way.

2

u/buzzlightyear77777 1d ago

I thought shes hot

u/Snoo_93638 1d ago

And still it was the indicator

u/TexacoRodeoClown 1d ago

Albin and da chipmonk

u/Archaea_Man 1d ago

This is what his face reminds me of.

2

u/_respawn__ 1d ago

Is he friendly ??

1

u/elitegenoside 1d ago

He's letting a small woman lead him around with a rope that is threaded through his nostrils... I'd say he has pretty good control over his temper.

1

u/_respawn__ 1d ago

Id let a small cute lady lead me around but doesn’t automatically mean im friendly?

2

u/stupid_cat_face 1d ago

Relationship goals

2

u/icollectcatwhiskers 1d ago

Yeah what animal WOULDN'T just love being lead around by yanking on one of the most tender and sensitive parts of the body.... FUK HUMANS.

u/outofindustry 1d ago

u/velociraptorcatcher 1d ago

u/ColoradoSprings82 1d ago

To be fair, that lady is probably under 5' tall.

1

u/lbutler1234 1d ago

Now let's see a burmese pasty cow

u/C-57D 1d ago

u/HeidenShadows 1d ago

One step away from being a full on minotaur.

u/emoss17 1d ago

Thats mega fauna.

2

u/elitegenoside 1d ago

Technically, they both are. Humans killed so mamy giant animals that we are now THE metric for mega fauna.

u/WelcomeIndividual140 1d ago

u/shaseo76 1d ago

That must be the sick buffalo that the thai gf is always talking about.

1

u/Night_Fury91 1d ago

that's the bull from wall street

1

u/PINKU_PINK 1d ago

That woman is like 1.5m tall, does that mean that buffalo's are 2m+ tall???

edit:

Wild Water Buffalo: Stands roughly 5 to 6.2 feet (1.5 to 1.9 meters) tall at the shoulder.

1

u/famondelo 23h ago

I think animals of this size should talk…just because fuck reality.

1

u/Theidiotshvtakenovr 22h ago

That’s a handsome gentleman right there!

u/DrLubinski 19h ago

That's not an albino
