Banteng
Taxonomy Bos javanicus [d'Alton, 1823]. Citation: Die Skelete der Wiederkauer, abgebildt und verglichen, p. 7. Type locality: Indonesia, Java. The taxonomic record (above) is taken from Wilson and Reeder (1993).
Both male and female banteng calves are born with red coats. During their first year of life, juvenile bantengs develop their characteristic white stockings and rump patches. At this time juvenile banteng bulls' coats gradually turn from red to black.
Banteng live in sparse forest where they feed on grasses, bamboo, fruit, leaves and young branches. The Banteng is generally active both at night and day time but in places where humans are common they adopt a nocturnal schedule.
