There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Impressive showing by the Nguni but the longer it goes the more I'd favor the cape snapping those horns or wearing it out.
I think the horn shape is playing in favour of the bull... reaching the buffaloes throat & neck over its curved horns.
If it were a real Aurochs in a real fight, bigger & with larger horns, then I suppose the cape would be at a disadvantageous position.
I think it's the reverse, the backward curvature allow the Cape to penetrate from behind the Nguni's horns every time he jerks his head up and lifts the Nguni.
Added on top of the fact that his bos crosses the whole front of his head, he should be able to withstand more abuse as well.
