Why does one Cape buffalo drop on the spot while another absorbs multiple hits and keeps going? In this episode, Tim Sundles and guest Chriss Mack dive into the reasons behind the so-called “bulletproof” buffalo phenomenon. They break down how adrenaline dumps, breathing cycles, blood distribution, and awareness of danger can dramatically change how an animal reacts to the same shot placement. The discussion also explains why follow-up shots are often necessary. Plus, the legendary Cape buffalo “death bellow,” multiple bellows versus none at all, and why ethical hunters keep shooting until the animal is unquestionably down.
