``These are the ones you see in pictures of Africa, riding on back of water buffalos,'' Cooper said. Buffalos have few natural predators, but the fabled buffalo kills by man and its near extinction are fully explained. For thousands of years, water buffalos, smooth-coated otters, jungle cats, Dalmatian pelicans, several species of eagles, slender billed curlews and Basra reed-warblers lived in the Mesopotamian marshes where the Tigris and Euphrates rivers converge near Basra to form the Shatt al Arab in what is now southern Iraq. |
