Sulawesi Surprise! : Holy Cow!

on
After breakfast, a full day would be spent exploring Toraja Land. There were promises of spectacular views of blue mountains, green rice terraces and valleys but holy cow! On the roadside, there was a strange animal. It looked like a seladang, a sort of buffalo and a man was giving it a good scrub. Our bus chugged to a stop and we got down excitedly. We had a field day taking photographs of the animal...  18

Is this a buffalo or a tapir?

Didn't pay attention to the legs. Thanks for pointing that out.
