LOL
Are their ankle "cuffs" hooked together??
You are pretty antiquated in your thinking. You need to re-visit the modern Simmental here in the great US of A.Son of Butch":2yl7s73k said:And yet ya still can't even give away a Simmental in Pakistan due to calving ease.

Pakistani people are mostly Muslim. So yes. There is also a Hindu population that does not.

That is interesting, and I was making a yoke. I still can't use emojisBright Raven":2f0v2ubz said:Txpiney":2f0v2ubz said:That's one heck of a Holstein I that second picBright Raven":2f0v2ubz said:Pakistan has some of the World Record Size cattle:
Both of those are Cholistani. A Zebu breed that has deep roots in Pakistan. Most cattle have Middle Eastern ancestory. They were breeding cattle before Great Britain existed.
Geneticist and anthropologists previously suspected that ancient Africans domesticated cattle native to the African continent nearly 10,000 years ago. Now, a team of University of Missouri researchers has completed the genetic history of 134 cattle breeds from around the world. In the process of completing this history, they found that ancient domesticated African cattle originated in the "Fertile Crescent," a region that covered modern day Iraq, Jordan, Syria and Israel.

The biggest I've seen in person was a 3,100 lb Brown Swiss Bull at Select Sires in the '80s.Bright Raven":61m580vx said:Pakistan has some of the World Record Size cattle:

Son of Butch":1v2reviz said:Age claims are generally disputed, seems every researcher wants to claim oldest to aid/increase research money.
It's been long established mankind started as hunter/gatherers and extensive cultivation/domestication got going in full swing with the Bronze Age in 3300 bc. Small food plots and herds were kept several hundred years prior 4000 bc.
Rice was cultivated by the Chinese in 5700 bc before that it was gathered, beyond that it's mostly speculation.
But seems most seeds were gathered and not cultivated before then and I would expect animal domestication to fall inline with the history of cultivation.
