More people are killed by Horses,than Buffalo. I enjoy that Mark Sullivan shoots 'em like fhuqking Prairie Dogs,to the chagrin of blue haired bitties the World over. Hint.
Fhuqking LAUGHING!................. Ya really gotta watch those wounded horses, they’re really known to backtrack, stomp ya into the ground and hook ya with their horns!!! It happens daily you ignorant fuuck!!! Haha I worked or my dad as a child driving a team of Belgiums on small horselogging operations and did a little backcountry trips in Idaho with stock. I can assure anyone that when your hitching up a team to logs its dangerous but when you accidentally park them over a yellow jackets nest it's as dangerous as any beast you'll encounter. Chaos at best. With horses it's not them going after you but more about them reacting when spooked and excited. They can be lightening and kill a human just as easy as any cape buffalo. I know a guy who got trampled in his barn by his team when a thunderstorm hit and spooked them and they killed him. Bull cattle can be just as dangerous too. Sure cape buffalo are mean and tough by their nature but I doubt they're anyore dangerous than an Hecks cattle one on one. Bottom line is, spend enough time around cape buffalo, or even large domestic or wild stock and there's a probability you can get stomped into soup. Fortunately even a cape buffalo or horse can be stopped with an 308win to the brain.

I understand that, I’ve owened horses, hunted on horses, worked on horse farms, they got a brain the size of a walnut. Comparing horse deaths to Cape buffalo deaths is apples and oranges. Bout like comparing bee sting deaths to Cape buffalo deaths.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!................. This is actually 100% true. It is not 100% true. First of all deaths in rural Africa are not always recorded, so there is no accurate data on deaths and causes. Second, there are far more horses in the world than Buffalo. Human interaction with horses occurs millions times more daily than with Buffalo. Horse deaths tend to be purely accidental. I have no reservations walking up to a horse. Cape buffalo, not so much. Not going to touch the Sullivan thing. Pages and pages on multiple forums about this subject. It's not even close to being true, then again consider the idiot making the comparison. More people are killed in Africa by the mosquito, so numbers is a stupid and irrelevant comparison. There are many instances when a client wounded buffalo recedes into a defensive position that would practically guarantee a charge and let's not even discuss wounded cats. The PH makes the decision as to: 1. Is the follow up reasonably safe to involve the client or must he go in alone? 2. If situation is clearly foolhardy, you either wait, get more PHs (if available) to help OR change tactics (like move in with the vehicle if the terrain permits, etc). Bottom line that is why PHs exist and that is why they call it dangerous game.

Jorge,
Another point might be that most hunters don't try to ride Cape buffalo--the major problem with horses. Otherwise the death-rate might be more equal!

Actually, I have a picture of me riding a buffalo, but opted not to post, lest I be accused of grandstanding....again.. in any case, here is the perfunctory "RIP"..

I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site. That's a first

Fortunately,"SCARY!" Cow Phobia is "real",for them who need it most,as they rent a fence to hop. While others shoot 'em by the hunnerts,less even shrugging shoulders. Hint.
Bless your hearts.

I have no idea what so hilariously fuels your Manic Bovine Phobia,but is in fact likely both...if only for fhuqking starters. Hint.
Fence Hoppers like to obliviously quantify,that Imitation is THE most Sincere form of Flattery,as they Whine aloud. Kudos on being so Emotional! hint.

Sweetheart, They are your deeply rooted Phobias and as plainly cited,others don't even shrug shoulders. Hint. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1280x1024q90/924/BbrUIY.png) Hell...you can't even punctuate for yourself and that's REAL scary for you. Hint.
