Tips

Water buffalo are very peaceful and undemanding animals. Here they are used as "landscape caretakers" and ensure that, for example, the ponds and areas in the heath are kept clear and they thus limit the growth of reeds and woody plants. This means that these areas can be used by other animal species, such as frogs, toads and dragonflies, which in turn provide food for birds, such as storks. These areas also provide breeding or resting places for rare bird species, such as curlews and snipes.
The water buffalo on this pasture normally have their "residence" on the Kragemann buffalo farm in Barlo and are only here to "work".
