                    [Title] => Ice Age carabao found in Cebu
                    [Summary] => 



Unknown to science until now, a new species of carabao has been discovered — 100,000 years late.


During the Ice Age, Bubalus cebuensis stood 2.5 feet and weighed about 160 kilograms. It was a mini copy of today’s adult water buffaloes that stand six feet and weigh up to a ton.

The dwarf buffalo is to a typical carabao as a pony is to a horse. And it is about a fourth smaller than its living relative, the hundred or so tamaraws that remain in Mindoro Island and nowhere else.
