@randomvideos.365: This adorable video shows a young water buffalo completely submerged underwater before popping its head up to take a breath. True to their name, water buffalo are semi-aquatic mammals that spend a large portion of their day swimming and wallowing in rivers, lakes, and mud holes. Submerging in water serves essential biological purposes for these animals. Since they have relatively few sweat glands, wallowing helps them regulate their body temperature in warm climates while providing natural protection against biting insects and harsh sunlight. Their specialized anatomy, including wide hooves that prevent sinking in soft mud and nostrils that seal when diving, makes them expert swimmers. Watching this calf casually chill underwater highlights just how natural aquatic life is for the species. #waterbuffalo #water #swimming #animals #wildlife
