A calf in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has become something of a local celebrity in her farmer’s village, after she was born with only two hind legs on the morning of April 14. Currently, the 25 kilogram calf cannot stand up on her own, which means her mother cannot feed her, leaving her to be hand-reared by her owner. Livestock experts have said there could be several reasons for this unfortunate birth defect. The problem may be genetic, or even have links to medicine or the food given to the farmer’s herd of cattle.
