    Black death in those eyes for sure. Lovely picture TStone.
    Interesting to see how different the horns are.

    It always amazes me that out of the whole paragraph that is the part that stuck. Perhaps it says something about our priorities.

    For reference, this is the full pararaph:
    “I lurched up and looked at Mbogo, and Mbogo looked at me. He was 50 to 60 yards off, his head low, his eyes staring right down my soul. He looked at me as if he hated my guts. He looked as if I had despoiled his fiancee, murdered his mother, and burned down his house. He looked at me as if I owed him money. I never saw such malevolence in the eyes of any animal or human being, before or since. So I shot him.

    I've often wondered about the same thing.

    It’s interesting what emotions or intentions people project onto animals, because they don’t work that way. We view them from a point of our own knowledge matrix nothing more, as you see in videos where tourists act stupidly around wild animals and gets mauled or trampled because they don’t treat wild animals with respect.

    I visited a private reserve once with buffalo and lion and many different animals, some you could interact with. I always find it curious to see other people’s responses or perceptions when it comes to something they don’t know or understand.

    In this picture I only see a buffalo looking at a human, with no expression or anything other than wondering why the human stopped to look at it.
