NON VEG cow....! COW eating FISH....?

Ever seen a non-vegetarian cow ? Milk, the staple food of the veg can’t be always considered vegetarian, going by the food-habit of the milch cow at the house of C.P. Hussain, a local businessman here. (in kuttiatur, kannur district)

One of the three cows in his house has turned non-vegetarian to the shock and surprise of many living in his village. The cow took to fish more than three years ago. It also likes chicken fry and fried fish. According to Hussain, his cow developed the taste for fish as he gave grass mixed with some fish nearly three years ago.
And the tastebuds of the cow showed a marked preference for fish. Later, even the smell of fish began invigorating the cow. The costly habit of this seven-year- old cow also has become a problem for him as his family can’t afford this luxury. Fortunately for Hussain, those who come to witness and convince themselves of the strange habit of his cow often come with packets of fish.
Hussain has two other cows, but they so far has shown no liking for fish or meat. The calves of the non-veg cow also have shown no penchant for fish. Or meat.
