New Delhi [India], February 05: Dhunn the Petting Farm, operated by the Dhunn Charitable Trust, has announced a potentially record-breaking achievement in indigenous cattle conservation. A remarkably tiny female calf named Harini has been born (02-02-2026 morning 9:37), standing just 20 inches tall with a 22-inch girth and a birth weight of 12.360 kg. This unique birth resulted from the natural mating of two elite miniature indigenous breeds: Gauri (a Konkan Kapila cow) and Nandi (a Punganur bull), both measuring a compact 32 inches. This event is a primary claim for the first-of-its-kind miniature crossbreeding success in Gujarat and potentially India.
The Dhunn Charitable Trust is proud to announce the birth of a rare indigenous calf, a success story defined by natural mating and a meticulously managed delivery process. This achievement was driven by the Trust’s proactive leadership; after identifying the cow’s pregnancy through early blood testing, the team coordinated a specialist medical group to ensure a healthy outcome.
The inspiration behind this initiative stems from Dr. (h.c.) Chirag Bhatt, the visionary whose keen interest in preserving biodiversity serves as the Trust’s moral compass. As the primary support system, Dr. Bhatt’s encouragement empowers every staff member and caretaker to provide world-class care for every species at the facility, from indigenous cattle to exotic residents.
