Buffaloes are huge land creatures.

• They don’t have shelter to protect themselves from the afternoon scorching Sun.  
• They are under the Sun for more than 10-12 hours daily.
• Their body colour is dark which absorbs heat faster.
• Also they don’t have enough sweat glands which actually help to cool down body through perspiration.
• Buffaloes have to rely on natural water bodies to cool off their bodies.
• Hence, they enjoy a dip in water on a hot summer afternoon.
