Head of Anoa. The ANOA (Bos [Bubalus] depressicornis). The smallest wild member of the ox tribe, characterised by itsstraight, upright horns, and the frequent presence of white spots on thesides of the head or elsewhere. Although so different in the formof the head and horns from the adult Indian buffalo, the anoa is inthese respects much more like the young of the latter ; and the twoare connected to a considerable extent by the tamarau, or Philippinebuffalo {Bos mindorensis) of the island of Mindoro. As in all theOriental buffaloes, the hair of the fore-part of the back is directedforwards in the anoa. Height at shoulder, about 3 feet 3 inches.Two races are recognised.
