While the water buffalo is making a comeback in Thailand, it is becoming very viable in the agricultural industry (especially dairy) in North America. Perhaps with the fuel prices here, we may have to revert to the old ways of working our fields as well. Look out, John Deere!
Lovely buffaloes!

YES! This is fantastic! Not only do the Water Buffalo "work for food", they
also fertilize the fields while they plow.
I remember when my grandfathers worked the land with mules up in
the mountains of West Virginia. No tractor can watch its step pulling
logs on a steep hillside, but mules can!
Once trained, mules seem to enjoy work. Humans need to get back
to that concept too. Enjoy healthy work without mechanized TOYS.
Its slower, but there's a trade-off of not needing $6 per gallon gas!
