The rare and elusive "Red Buffalo" are much sought after by savvy hunters in the Top End. They live in the most remote gorges way back in the Arnhem Land sandstone, and are extremely wary and incredibly difficult to hunt. Only a select few of Australia's most skilled hunters have even set eyes on one, let alone brought one to bag.

Nah, just pullin' yer leg!

So-called 'Red' buffalo in Australia are just another colour variation. A lot of youngsters, say less than 6 months old, are pink in colour in some areas. Many individuals retain the colour to old age.

Plenty of grey ones and black ones present also. No big deal IMHO.
