THE FUTURE OF CARABAO

I was telling my son, maybe in a not so distant future, you will then be seeing carabaos in resin and not moving… like these two … hope not.


The carabao (Filipino: kalabaw; Malay: kerbau) or Bubalus bubalis carabanesis is a domesticated subspecies of the water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) found in the Philippines, Guam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and various parts of Southeast Asia. Carabaos are associated with farmers, being the farm animal of choice for pulling both a plow and the cart used to haul produce to the market (courtesy of www.wikipedia.org)

    Marvelous watery reflections, Vernz! I do hope the carabao survives! So many animals are on the verge of extinction and it is so sad! Have a great weekend!

    That's very pretty; I have to go and read more about carabao now though -- new word to me!

    I read you post on top of this one too -- and yikes! that is too bad about the electricity brownout.

    As there's much green around there might be as well enough hope.

    Please have a nice Sunday.
