There are really all kinds of wonders in this world. Do you believe it? A villager in Thailand raised a monster cow at home, and the horns would grow in the opposite direction. A wealthy businessman from Mumbai offered 180,000 yuan to buy the monster cow, but the owner of the cow refused to sell it.
Does this sound a bit incredible? However, this incident did happen in reality. What is going on? Let's take a look together!
Basong Zonra Viemon, Thai , lives in a place called Buri Nam Prefecture in northeastern Thailand, adjacent to Cambodia . Basong is an ordinary villager in Nonghong County, Buriram Prefecture. He usually makes a living by growing rice. In addition, Basong also planted some cassava, rubber and banana near his residence.
Due to the need for farming, Basong's family has about 5 buffaloes. During the busy farming season, buffaloes can help Basong cultivate the land and transport grains and goods in daily life. Basong relies entirely on these buffaloes in his own home.
In 2006, a cow named "Moni" from the Basong family gave birth to an calf . Basong liked this calf very much and gave it a very domineering name "pope". This word means the pope in Thailand.
For a long time, Basong has taken good care of "pope", giving it the tenderest grass and drinking the sweetest mountain spring water. He usually takes it to the river to take a bath when he has nothing to do. He takes it meticulously for it to take care of it, and hopes that "pope" will thrive in the future.
However, as "pope" grows, Basong gradually realizes something is wrong, because generally normal buffaloes have horns that are curved inward and upward, but the horns of "pope" are exactly the opposite, but instead bent downward.
At the beginning, Basong didn't care too much, but felt that as "pope" grows, the angle adjustment may return to normal in the future. However, as time goes by, the direction of the growth of the "pope" horns has not only not changed, but the arc is getting bigger and bigger.
2022, that is, when "pope" was 16 years old, its two horns had intersected. From a distance, it felt like a necklace was worn on the cow's neck. Basong posted the video and pictures of "pope" online, sharing every move of "pope" with netizens every day. Unexpectedly, this unintentional action caused a huge response online.
"pope" has become an internet celebrity in several Southeast Asian countries including Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand in just a few weeks. The number of clicks on "pope" videos is often more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands. This internet celebrity bull, named "pope", has become the star of tomorrow in Southeast Asia. The popularity of
"pope" also brought huge benefits to Basong. He began to sell agricultural products online and had a hot sales. Since "pope" became popular, more and more merchants have come to buy cattle.
In February 2022, a Vietnamese businessman contacted Basong and expressed his willingness to buy "pope" for 250,000 baht (equivalent to about 46,000 yuan), but Basong refused. Basong's statement of this price is simply an insult to people, because he earns more than this amount of money by selling "pope" photos.
Originally, after becoming popular from "pope", many people went to Basong's house to look for "pope" to take a photo, but taking photos with "pope" is not free. For every photo, Basong charges 50 to 500 baht (equivalent to about 9 yuan to 90 yuan).
Later, a month later, another wealthy businessman from Bangkok found Basong and expressed his willingness to bid 1 million baht (equivalent to about 180,000 yuan) to buy "pope", but even so, Basong refused to sell.
BaSong said that his original psychological price was almost around this number, so when he heard this price, he was indeed a little shaken, but when he really wanted to sell "pope", when he saw "pope" eyes with tears in his eyes, he suddenly couldn't bear it.
He thinks that a cow may have feelings like a human being, but he just can't speak. He raised it since he was a child and suddenly said he wanted to sell it. He really couldn't bear to leave it.
