Among the bovine family, the Indian bison is considered to be the largest cattle in the world, generally about 2.5 to 3.3 meters long, weighing about 800 kg, and the largest recorded adult male Indian bison weighs 1 and a half tons. Recently, in the nature reserve of Pu'er, Yunnan, infrared cameras have captured a rare scene: a group of Indian bison, including a small calf with yellow hair, which is also the first time that Indian bison cubs have been photographed in Yunnan.
According to the researchers: from the appearance of this cow, there are blood stains on its buttocks, indicating that this calf should have just been born, indicating that this group of Indian bison chose this place as a habitat and bred this bison cub, so it is of great research significance to photograph this Indian bison cub for the first time.
In the Indian bison population, their populations are mainly distributed in the mountain forests or grasslands of South Asia and Southeast Asia, only distributed in Pu'er and Xishuangbanna in China, the number of Indian bison in China is relatively small, and the Indian bison in China is about 120, which is one of the endangered and rare animals, and has also been included in the list of national protected animals.
In addition to being the largest surviving cattle, indian bison also has a clear feature, that is, adult Indian bison is a huge dark bison, with gray or yellow-white "socks" in the lower part of the limbs, no white rump spots, so it is also called white-limbed bison, white socks, Asian bison and so on.
Among the white-armed bison, they have similar living habits to the African bison and the American bison, and they are all group activities, each group of white-limbed bison has a small number of about five or six, and the large group has twenty or thirty, and the white-limbed bison have a strong female cow as the leader, and the rest of the female white-limbed bison and young cattle follow the activity. Adult male white-limbed bison spend most of the year alone, or with two or three of the same sex, and only return to the herd during the breeding period.
As the world's largest cattle animal, the white-limbed bison is also very fierce, the aggression is also very fierce, generally only the Bengal tiger can be killed, which is usually hunted is the calf, but the calf is protected by the herd, so it is often filmed that the Bengal tiger is chased by the white-limbed bison herd, not too hungry, the Bengal tiger will not use the white-limbed bison as a prey target.
