1:correct , they typically never fight unless one is they feel their offspring are in danger , but on a regular base they eat the same foods [grasses , herbs , leaves , fruits] so they never have a reason to fight . 2:really the elephants hide is thick , even rhinos which have sharper horns then buffulos have a hard time penetrating their hide . 1: Yes, so it's a bit of an underestimation on the buffalo's part 2: How about 6 buffaloes working together and determined to kill? 1:  2:possible they can win , im not backing the elephant or the buffulo here |

That is the case here. |

What I was trying to say is that the video seems to show an even bigger size difference between the elephant and the buffalo and may not be a good representation of how fast the elephant can kill a buffalo here. |
