It's Swahili: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tandala .

Lo bakrto is the ungulate called תאו in Hebrew, which is mentioned in Deut. 
14:5. In modern Hebrew it is the buffalo, and different editions of the Reina-
Valera and the LXX list the buffalo in this verse, but not all in the same 
position. How long ago did water buffaloes arrive in Egypt?
