What is a hybrid between cow and buffalo called?

There isn't a specific name for a hybrid between a cow and a buffalo. Here's why:

* Different Species: Cows (bovine species *Bos taurus*) and buffalo (various species of *Bubalus*) are distinct species, not just different breeds.

* Hybrids are Rare: While crossbreeding is possible between some closely related animals, it's not common or practical between cows and buffalo. There are significant biological differences between the two, making successful breeding challenging.

Important Note: Some individuals might use "beefalo" as a general term for a hybrid of a buffalo and a cow. However, beefalo is typically used to refer to a specific hybrid of a domestic cow and the American bison, which is a different species than the water buffalo.
