The Deadly Buffalo by william R.Leigh
An englishman resident in Nairobi said that he once met a black buffalo bull in a patch of forest when he was out hunting with a friend.He was in the lead and recognized his danger.Believing the bull would attack,and hopeing to kill him first,the englishman fired.But he only wounded the animal,which instantly charged.The englishman jumped aside,but his leg was struck by a horn and broken.While the bull tore on to catch the second hunter,the first one,despite his boken leg,climbed a tree and got out on a branch,but his failing strength could not carry him no higher.He could not even lift his injured leg,which dangled uselessly below the branch to which he clung.For over 2 hours he hung there,obliged to look on while the bull reduced his friends body to fragments smaller than a half dollar.This accomplished,the animal turned his attention to the enemy in the tree.He could not reach him,but by taking a running jump he could hit the dangling foot with his horns,and thus amused himself for two hours more,jumping at and banging the foot.At last,perhaps weakened by his wound,the buffalo left,and the man was rescued by other hunters.He was able to walk with a crutch,at the time I heard the story,some years after the incident occurred....
from Frontiers of Enchantment Leighs 1940 classic......
