[PAR] [TLE] African buffalo [SEP] The African buffalo or Cape buffalo ("Syncerus caffer") is a large African bovine.  It is not closely related to the slightly larger wild water buffalo of Asia and its ancestry remains unclear.  "Syncerus caffer caffer", the Cape buffalo, is the typical subspecies, and the largest one, found in South and East Africa.  "S. c. nanus" (African forest buffalo) is the smallest subspecies, common in forest areas of Central and West Africa, while "S. c. brachyceros" is in West Africa and "S. c. aequinoctialis" is in the savannas of East Africa.  The adult buffalo's horns are its characteristic feature; they have fused bases, forming a continuous bone shield across the top of the head referred to as a "boss".  They are widely regarded as very dangerous animals, as they gore and kill over 200 people every year. [PAR] [TLE] Lumpy skin disease [SEP] Lumpy skin disease is a disease caused by a virus of the family "Poxviridae", also known as Neethling virus.  It mainly affects cattle and zebus, but has also been seen in giraffes, African buffalo, and impalas. Lumpy skin disease was first seen as an epidemic in Zambia in 1929, and since then has affected cattle throughout Africa, including the countries South Africa, Egypt, and Sudan, and in 1989 an outbreak was confirmed in Israel.  In April 2016 Bulgaria contacted the World Food Organisation for assistance in dealing with an epidemic.  It is spread by biting insects.
