Another user observed how Narejo is quite proud of Simba and all the fame she has brought with her. The comment read, “The way he is so proud of his little goat, so adorable.”
One user even went on to write a fun poem for Simba. “Do your ears hang low? Do they wobble to and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow? Can you throw them over your shoulder like a continental soldier? Do your ears hang low?” read the comment.
Simba belongs to the Nubian breed of goats that tend to have long, bell-shaped ears extending an inch below the face, and small upturned tails. Nubian goats are also known for producing high-quality, high-butterfat milk, which can be drunk or used to make ice cream, yoghurt, cheese, and butter, said a News18 report.
Simba’s owners Narejo and Yasir said the animal belongs to the rarest breed and has already made a world record for having the longest ears.
