Dagga Hats
Main Tag:
Description: The main nicknames for the Cape buffalo are "Black Death" and "Widowmaker," given for its reputation as an unpredictable, aggressive, and dangerous animal that kills humans. Old, solitary Cape buffalo bulls have the nickname "Dugga Boy" or "Dagga Boy" (from the Zulu word for mud) because they wallow in mud and their hides become covered in the dry mixture.
