Woman says missing buffalo is back home

BARROW COUNTY, Ga. — A Barrow County woman says someone spotted her baby water buffalo that ran away during Saturday night's storms.

A driver spotted the animal along a county road on Monday around 2 a.m. The 7-month-old buffalo has since been returned to Wilderness Farm in Auburn, Ga.

Owner Charlotte Cates told the Atlanta-Journal Constitution on Sunday that Saturday's storms likely scared off the animal.

Cates said the buffalo is at home safe and sound.
