Meet the adorable looking dwarf cow. There’s a video below so you can see the diminutive creature which stands almost three feet tall, or 87 centimeters. They weigh, depending on the breed, around 250 to almost 300 pounds and yield about 5 pints of milk per day. But before you go look, you should know that “cute” isn’t the attraction here.
The critter eats like a goat so farmers don’t need cattle feed or hay to keep a herd alive. They carry a ‘thermometer gene’ that makes them resistant to heatwaves and drought. And, they’re resistant to many diseases too.
In short, some breeds of dwarf cows are so climate change hardy that they seem to be the perfect food for humans in the coming food shortage. Of course, their carcasses produce small amounts of meat. Because of that, geneticists may soon infuse their genetic superpowers into bigger breeds. In any case, these animals promise a brighter future for humans who need to eat meat and milk products.
Ok, now take a look at this remarkable little beastie….
