I didn't think they gave pain killers to wild buffalo...

Oh, he's annoyed all right. They tend to screw their eyes up, hence
my title. Buffalo are completely unpredictable & can attack without
warning or provocation. No one in their right mind walks near a herd
of Buffalo. There are at least 200 reported deaths/year in Africa.
That growth at the top of the horns would be much bigger in a mature
bull.
LOL

Alan , you were in you car yes? I don't see annoyance in the bull's
expression.. looks like a wise old patriarch...
Bison not aggressive to humans on foot - don't bother us and we wont
bother you... but , of course, all breeding bulls such as bison, deer,
elk, moose become aggresive to us in the rutting season if we were to
get too close.

Thanks for your comments, John, Ken, Larry, Dan & Jack. The subdued
light helped a lot. Buffalos are neutral to cars but very aggressive
to humans on foot. The breeding bulls which move in and out of the
matriarchal herds are the most dangerous. Presumably the North
American Bison are much the same?

A young Buffalo bull showing his annoyance at our presence. One of a
herd of at least 200. Taken not
far from home near Sable Dam.
