An incongruous sight meets visitors of the northern Brazilian island of Marajo: thousands and thousands of water buffalo, animals endemic to India and Southeast Asia that have found a new home in South America.
The buffalo are employed as patrol animals by the military police in Soure, where heavily-armed officers ride on their backs in specially-adapted seats.
There are currently around half-a-million water buffalos on Marajo today, more than then island’s human population of 440,000. - AFP, September 15, 2023.

its not employed this way. Buffalos are used to pass thru jungle and swamps, wich you cant navigate with motorbikes or boats.

The Straighter-Horn (on the left) is South East Asian breed, while the CURL-Horn (on the right) is INDIA-Breed (i try not call it INDIAN, which will be falsified as North American.)

Italian Mozzarella makers mostly prefer the CURL-Horn breed. Has it provided more Yield of Milk, or for the safety/convenience of SHORTER Horns space.(???)
