(CLO) Unlike normal cows, a cow living near Cam Luong magic fish stream, Cam Thuy district, Thanh Hoa province has 6 legs and 2 tails growing from its neck.
Located in the complex of Cam Luong Magic Fish Stream Tourist Area, many tourists are curious and interested in the sightseeing sign “Strange Phenomenon of Six-Legged Cow” right nearby.
According to observations, the cow has a normal shape like the same species, the only difference is that right at the position of the cow’s neck, there are 2 more legs and a tail growing from the cow’s left shoulder. The cow is now nearly 5 years old, weighs more than 4 quintals, is more than 2 meters long and is nearly 1.5 meters high. Cows mainly eat grass and corn bran.
It is known that the owner of this special cow is Mr. Bui Minh Tuan (born in 1979), with an address in Cam Luong commune, Cam Thuy district. Mr. Tuan said he bought the mutant calf from a brother in the commune about 3 years ago. When the mother cow is pregnant, there are no unusual signs.
However, when the calf is born, there are two legs hanging on the left shoulder on its back. Between these two legs grows a tail like a soft lump of flesh, without bones. Currently the cow is still growing normally and is fat.
When he bought this calf to raise, Mr. Tuan took care of it and watched it and saw that the calf grew bigger, and the two “extra” legs on the calf also grew. Up to now, after many years of care, the two extra legs on the cow’s shoulder are no less big than the four main legs.
Since the cow became famous, people from all over came to see it. Many people asked to buy but the cow owner did not sell. “Someone came to ask to buy a cow for up to several billion VND to bring to the tourist area for visitors, but I did not agree” – Mr. Tuan shared.
Currently, many people who visit Cam Thuy magic fish stream also stop by to see Mr. Tuan’s family’s special cow. When everyone came to watch, they also supported his family with a small amount of money to take care of the cow. On days when the magic fish stream is crowded with visitors, hundreds of people also visit Mr. Tuan’s family’s strange cow. For each person visiting this cow, visitors support the family with 7,000 VND to buy food for the homeowner to take care of the cow.
On sunny days, the cow is bathed by its owner every two days to keep it clean. Every day, Mr. Tuan brings the cow out to the yard for everyone to see, and at night he brings it back to the barn behind the house.
