Chauri Gai (cow)

                                         Chauri gai is a cow which is generally found on himalayan region of Nepal and Tibet, its is very beautiful and huge in size compared to other cow but smaller then jersi cows,this female cow is a crossbreed of mighty yak and cow which is quite similar as yak with thick fur and tail like horses but the body structure is like cow, this cows are generally breed for their milk producing quality, they gives good amount of milk compared to other cows, the people of himalayan region herd them in a group and makes churpi (a fat and nourished cheese like substance made from curd) and Ghee which is very nutrients and also expensive.They have very sharp pointed and attractive horns which is marvellous.
         these cows generally prefer to live in cool and colder places rather then hot places,they are strong compared to other cows and the sad thing about it is the animal raiser kills the baby of chauri because it is said that the babies of them are not valueable and they are not suitable for milk also so they are like useless. These cows  gives milk three time a day morning at 3 am ,in noon 12 pm  and at 6pm so in a day so good amount of milk is gathered per day.

the breeding is familiar as the cows and gives birth to one child in a year.
