The long ears of the baby goat are most likely the outcome of a genetic mutation or disease. She, on the other hand, appears to be doing fine.
Digital Desk: A newborn baby goat catches the attention of people for its unusually long ears, measuring almost 46 cm, or 19 inches. The goat could also be named a world record holder for its unique ears.
The goat, named Simba, was reportedly born in Sindh on June 5. The goat's unusually long ears shocked its owner, Muhammad Hassan Narejo, when it was born. In Pakistan, she has already become a local celebrity. The goat's ears are so long that when she walks, they drag on the floor. They dangle on either side of her face, wriggling in the breeze.
The long ears of the baby goat are most likely the outcome of a genetic mutation or disease. She, on the other hand, appears to be doing fine. Ms. Narejo hopes of Simba to become a Guinness World Record holder in the near future.
Simba is a Nubian goat, a breed known for its large ears, which serve an important function in hot weather: they help to keep the body cool. Simba's ears, however, are long even by Nubian standards. But, happily, for her, that's a good thing, because the temperature in Karachi, where the baby goat lives, varies due to the topography, but in the summer, high temperatures can reach 47 degrees Celsius.
Meanwhile, the most prevalent type of goat in Pakistan is the Kamori, which can be found in the Sindh region. With roughly 54 million goats, the country has been identified as the world's third-largest goat producer.
Notably, some of the breeds are bred solely for meat production, while others are used for both meat and milk production. Nubian goats produce high-fat milk that can be consumed or used to make ice cream, yoghurt, cheese, and butter. These goats can live in extremely hot temperatures and have a longer breeding season than other dairy goats due to their Middle-Eastern background.
