Thanks for extra picture, the figure is more than good for me.
As you said, it is not always easy what is a domestic and a wild Asian buffalo and we find some differences in horn shape. we find often the lower half of the horns more horizontal with the body and then curving upwards but also like these.
The picture is quite close but the face look short or wide, maybe cheeck area and top of the snout closer to the eyes needed to be narrowed? Hard to see in a dark figure and we don't want it taking too long to arrive our collections!

in fact, the wild one has longer horns, not short ones and it is different, its wilder aspect is seen and the domestic one looks small and with short horns further back and its color is lighter and if it is river with much shorter horns and their bodies look more like a cow

thanks for your explanations.

You're welcome, lately I've liked the buffalo of aaguaaagua much more than before and if anyone knows if there is a documentary where they come out, send me the link

Here I leave the photo where they were based on the figure [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
