Default Some buffalo and other large creatures

On Interstate 20 near Canton is a ranch that has some interesting creatures that are common and not so common here in Texas so I stopped a good while ago and took some pics. If you are wondering, the horns on this longhorn are the biggest I've ever seen. They are gigantic and don't even look real when you see them with your own eyes. I took these with my Panasonic G1 and 45-200 lens.

Man alive, thery're huge horns! Sorta wouldn't want to annoy the codger to much. Actually to be honest i wouldn't even go into that paddock without taking a 12 guage with me.
I wonder what they do with the zebra?

Are you sure those bull's horns are real? I've seen those Jackalope photos you know. But seriously, it's amazing that the bull can hold his head up!

Beautiful buffalos...to think there were once vast herds... And a camel and zebra - that is quite a diverse group of animals!

Just for fun. I guess this longhorn I shot is not the king.
