Differing Migration Paths

While this herd of buffalos seem to migrate away from pasture to pasture looking for fresh grass, humans have the habit of doing the exact opposite of migrating into the opposite direction towards them, right into their paths.

This is an amazingly incongruous image in terms of scale and function. The van seems lost in a herd of buffalo, striking in is contrasting color and counter directional flow. It also tells another story: each species goes its own way here. The buffalo are oblivious to this van, while this van does not appear to be concerned about the buffalo, either.
