tamaraw

Where it comes from

From Tagalog.

noun tamaraws · tamaraw · tamarau · tamarao

A small, dark brown, hoofed buffalo, Bubalus mindorensis, found only in Mindoro in the Philippines. The habitat requirements of the tamaraw appear to be fairly flexible, and present habitat use reflects human pressures rather than the animal's preferences. In the past, tamaraw were found in virtually all parts of Mindoro, from sea level to mountain tops.
