Original range and subspecies ³

Two species related to the domestic water buffalo (Bubalus bubalus) used to occur in the western Palearctic. The extinct European water buffalo (Bubalus murrensis ) and the wild water buffalo (Bubalus arnee ) that is still extant in Asia today and probably the ancestor of the domesticated form.

Reintroduction efforts so far ⁴

Domestic water buffalo have been used in a number of natural grazing projects, sometimes in semi-wild herds. No free-ranging wild populations currently exist.
