BUFFLE DE FORET (Syncerus caffer)<\/em><\/h3>\n

Taille 170-340 cm<\/p>\n

Queue 50-80 cm<\/p>\n

Hauteur 100-170 cm<\/p>\n

Poids 250-850 kg<\/p>\n

DESCRIPTION<\/h4>\n

Grand bovin aux cornes \u00e9paisses, en bosse, et aux oreilles velues. Le pelage est ras, souvent clairsem\u00e9, entre le rouge chaud et le noir. Le dessous du menton est souvent clair (blanc cr\u00e8me) et des taches de couleurs contrast\u00e9es apparaissent sur la face et les pattes.<\/p>\n

Les buffles de for\u00eat font g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement moins de 120 cm au garrot et p\u00e8se moins de 320 kg.<\/p>\n

HABITAT<\/h4>\n

Clairi\u00e8res herbeuses, cours d’eau et bassins inond\u00e9s. Le climat humide assure une v\u00e9g\u00e9tation constante, ce qui fait qu’il peut survivre l’ann\u00e9e enti\u00e8re sur une zone restreinte. Le surp\u00e2turage de certaines \u00ab clairi\u00e8res \u00e0 buffles \u00bb ralentit ou limite la croissance v\u00e9g\u00e9tale.<\/p>\n

ALIMENTATION<\/h4>\n

Gramin\u00e9es, mais ils ing\u00e8rent \u00e9galement de grandes quantit\u00e9s de plantes de marais. Les d\u00e9rangements ou la pr\u00e9dation par l’homme modifient les comportements alimentaires, les animaux passant d’une activit\u00e9 continue \u00e0 une activit\u00e9 cr\u00e9pusculaire et nocturne.<\/p>\n

COMPORTEMENT<\/h4>\n

Les buffles de for\u00eat forment de petits groupes de 12 animaux au plus de femelles apparent\u00e9es accompagn\u00e9es de leurs jeunes, plus un ou plusieurs m\u00e2les. D’autres m\u00e2les sont solitaires ou forment des petits groupes de c\u00e9libataires. Au sein de ces clans, les adultes des deux sexes cr\u00e9ent une hi\u00e9rarchie. Les accouplements connaissent un pic saisonnier et la saison s\u00e8che, qui est la \u00ab saison sans \u00bb, voit beaucoup de m\u00e2les quitter les familles ou clans de femelles. Les chaleurs des femelles sont pr\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9es de signes d’\u0153strus qui attirent beaucoup les m\u00e2les. C’est l\u00e0 que joue la hi\u00e9rarchie. Les combats sont fr\u00e9quents. La gestation dure 11 mois et un intervalle de deux ans entre les naissances est normal. Le lien m\u00e8re-petit est tr\u00e8s fort, mais les femelles sont \u00e9galement tr\u00e8s attach\u00e9es au troupeau. Tous les adultes r\u00e9pondent donc aux cris de d\u00e9tresse et m\u00eame un m\u00e2le bless\u00e9 par un autre m\u00e2le se r\u00e9fugiera au sein du troupeau. La vision qui est normalement le sens le plus d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 en terrain d\u00e9couvert est moins importante chez le buffle que l’ou\u00efe. C’est par petits meuglements bas que les animaux restent en contact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
