'''Buffalo''' were [[cow]]-like creatures that lived on [[Earth]]. Because [[Roz Forrester]]'s family name, Inyathi, translated as "buffalo", she wasn't allowed to eat a buffalo. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Also People]]'') | '''Buffalo''' were [[cow]]-like creatures that lived on [[Earth]]. Because [[Roz Forrester]]'s family name, Inyathi, translated as "buffalo", she wasn't allowed to eat a buffalo. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Also People]]'') They were once the dominant species on Earth, but when their Herd-Leader was trapped in ice they degenerated without his mind. The Bovine Leader revived thousands of years later and was able to travel back in time. He found his species were being wiped out by the native Americans and guided [[Columbus]] to America, hoping the Europeans would wipe out the native Americans.([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Trouble in Paradise]]'') | ||

The [[DWU]] fails to use ''buffalo'' as a synonym for ''[[bison]]'' — which it is, in a limited sense. Certainly, [[North America]]n buffalo are bison. However, the kind the [[Seventh Doctor]] and [[Ace]] saw in [[Africa]] would have been {{w|African buffalo}} and not at all bison. | The [[DWU]] fails to use ''buffalo'' as a synonym for ''[[bison]]'' — which it is, in a limited sense.
