Default Water Buffalo

My Daughter whom I dearly love, found a ceramic water buffalo to add to my small collection of water buffalo. An interest on mine from my tour in Viet-Nam, what is unusual about this one is a label on the rump, " HAND CRAFTED CERAMICS " MADE IN VIETNAM ". First for me, maybe I need to get out more. Any way if any of your guys see small ( fist size up to 15 inchs ) Water Buffalo for sale, give me a shout. Stone, Rock, Wood and Ceramic. Would appreciate it.

Default I know where there is one

The place I go hunting has one, but, its alive and weighs about 2000 lbs. Probably wouldn't play well in your house.

Boats,

I think the harbor lighters in Da Nang harbor that brought around supposedly fresh water had the nic ?water buffalos?. But I think that had more to do with how the water tasted than anything else as I recall. Now that I think about it , the nic may have been buffalo water or something along those lines.
