Our mother water buffalo gave birth to a healthy, normal, 50 kilos male calf this month! Amazing!
Wikipedia claims that a female water buffalo produces calf every other year after gestation of 9 - 11 months. But she gives birth every year! Its just to tell you that our water buffaloes are well fed, well-bred, healthy and fertile!
They are used as draft, meat and source of dairy products. All domesticated buffaloes has only one common ancestor - the wild water buffalo.
Look at this photo, of "mother and son" together as they walk around the barn.
They are a source of the favorite mozzarella cheese.
95% of the world's water buffalo's population lives in Asia.
Legend says: that Lao Tze, a Chinese philosopher (sage) left China riding a water buffalo passing through the Han Gu Pass.
