Abstract

The domesticated animals (among which the cow cattle occupy the most cherished status) have been the age-old companions of Human beings since the dawn of civilization. These have enjoyed a loveful and prestigious relationship just like family members particularly in the culture of our country. These have also been instrumental in providing sustainability as well as self-sufficiency to the rural economy in the ancient times.
