The term 'dwarf buffalo' refers to a small species of buffalo found in Southeast Asia. These animals are also known by other names such as pygmy buffalo, lowland anoa, or anoa de la Calayan. Some subspecies are further classified by their specific habitat such as the mountain anoa found in higher elevations or the swampland anoa that thrive in wetlands. Despite their diminutive size, these buffalo are known for their sharp horns and sturdy bodies that make them formidable prey to hunters and predators alike. While they may be small, they are no less fascinating and impressive than their larger counterparts.
