'World's smallest cow' finds fame in Bangladesh

[Still Waters]

Visitors have been flocking to a farm in Bangladesh to see a new celebrity: a dwarf cow called Rani.

The 23-month-old Bhutti, or Bhutanese, cow stands just 51cm (20in) high, and weighs 28kg (62Ib).

Despite a national Covid lockdown, more than 15,000 people have reportedly visited Rani at her farm in Charigram, near the capital Dhaka.

Farm manager Hasan Howladar has applied to the Guinness Book of Records, saying Rani is the world's smallest cow.

"I have never seen anything like this in my life," visitor Rina Begum told BBC Bangla.

I looked them up, they suffer from dwarfism but I couldn't see references to any other condition.

Think how cool it would be to say to guests "do you take milk?" and then calling a miniature cow in from the garden!

Got milk?

Of course. Let me pass you the cow. 

But ... 'mini'scule? Oops!
