The proverbial buffalo

A quick question - I'm translating a contemporary British novel, and ran into this sentence: "He will have to run headlong into it, like the proverbial buffalo into the storm." This seems to refer to some well-known idiom, but I can't think of any that would fit the bill. Any ideas?

• The proverbial buffalo Smokey Stover 15/April/10
  • The proverbial buffalo David FG 15/April/10
    • The proverbial buffalo john 16/April/10

        • The proverbial buffalo Smokey Stover 17/April/10
        • The proverbial buffalo Smokey Stover 17/April/10
          • The proverbial buffalo David FG 17/April/10
            • The proverbial buffalo Smokey Stover 18/April/10
              • The proverbial buffalo David FG 18/April/10
