When Daily Life Is An Adventure: Riding Water Buffalo

We have two water buffalo at the ranch, to demonstrate the types of livestock Heifer projects utilize all over the world. They're a popular gift in Asia. These two get along fine in Arkansas, even though the winters are a little cold.

We have two--Briggs and Stratton. They're huge and docile. They don't do anything but eat and sleep, except for every once and a while. Sometimes we surprise participants here on the ranch with a treat. We let them ride the water buffalo.


These are two participants of the college "Alternative Spring Break" program, after a slightly rainy afternoon of service learning.
