I don't think any differences exist between Buffalo in Aust.
One thing I have noticed is if the Buff etc have been assimilated and are used to people, cars, (and so are more docile / less likely to run at first sight). etc or whether totally wild and run on sight or are extremely wary of humans. Scrub Bulls the same but they are called Scrub Bulls for a reason in that they have lived in the wild a long time and have never been rounded up.

Scrub Bulls might run on sight but stick a bullet in them and they can get very agro and very chargeable very quickly - in some ways more so than Buff.

From people I have spoken to who have shot both types of Buff, I have been told they can be alot harder to put down than Cape Buff but are not as cunning - ie they won't circle and hide and then chare like you see written about Cape Buff.

From my experience, Water Buff will run on being hit and it seems only charge when wounded, can't run and you come up to them
(although the prick of a cow that charged me didn't stick to the rules !!!).

Just my HO.
