Military Police from the 8th Battalion patrol on Asian water buffalos in Soure, Marajo Island, Para State, Brazil, on September 5, 2023. The police force has adopted the buffalo as a means of transportation to cross waterlogged areas when needed for operations on the island. The buffalo's hooves allow them to move easily through muddy swamps, and they cope well with the island’s intense tropical heat. The force was nicknamed Buffalo Soldiers by a Brazilian magazine in reference to the Bob Marley hit song "Buffalo Soldier". (Photo by CARL DE SOUZA / AFP)
