Photo: Kambala: Buffalo Racing In Slushy Waters of Karnataka, India

Kambala is an action packed buffalo racing sport which happens, in the South Western part of Karnataka, India, from the months of December to March. Kambala like a normal race is not just about completing the stretch of the track in the least time, another unusual aspect to this race is that in the middle of the track some markers are placed at the height of 6.5 and 7.5 feet respectively. The idea is that the splashing water should rise to this height and for this the lone rider has to stand on a plank.
