The relationship between buffalo and cowbirds is a form of commensalism. Cowbirds often follow herds of buffalo, benefiting from the insects and parasites that are disturbed and exposed as the buffalo graze.

This interaction illustrates the interconnectedness of species in ecosystems.

Cowbirds are considered unusual because they practice brood parasitism, where they lay their eggs in the nests of other bird species, letting those birds raise their young. This behavior can harm the host bird species by outcompeting their offspring for resources. Additionally, cowbirds have evolved to follow large mammals like buffalo in the wild, exploiting the insects stirred up by their movement.
