What does a buffalo eat?

Buffalo are herbivores and their diet primarily consists of grasses and sedges. They are known to graze on short grasses, but they can also consume taller grasses, leaves, twigs, and bark when necessary. Buffalo are ruminant animals, which means they have a four-chambered stomach that allows them to efficiently digest plant matter. They typically spend a significant portion of their day grazing and can consume large amounts of vegetation. Some species of buffalo, such as the American bison, may also eat fruits, berries, and other vegetation when available.
