KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Simba was born with unusually long ears measuring 19 inches in Karachi, Pakistan, earlier this month
- She is a Nubian – a goat breed that is known for its long ears but she has apparently broken a world record
- There are currently no goats holding a Guinness World Record for the longest ears of goats
A newborn goat could be a Guinness World Record holder after she was born with unusually long ears measuring 19 inches.
Simba, meaning lion in Swahili, was born in Karachi, Pakistan just days ago. She has caught the attention of locals and already become a celebrity.
Simba, who is just a few weeks old, is a Nubian – a goat breed that is known for its long ears. Their ears are designed to keep them cool in the hot weather but Simba has apparently broken a world record.
Her owner Muhammad Hassan Narejo was shocked when she was born with such long ears. Simba's ears are so long that they drag on the floor as she walks. They dangle down on either side of her face and wiggle in the wind.
There are currently no goats holding a Guinness World Record for the longest ears of goats - but there are dogs who hold the same honour.
Simba's long ears are probably the result of a gene mutation or a genetic disorder.
Narejo hopes that Simba will soon be an official Guinness world record holder.
Nubian goats produce high-quality, high-butterfat milk, which can be drunk or used to make ice cream, yoghurt, cheese and butter. They can live in very hot climates and have a longer breeding season than other dairy goats.
The most common type of goat to be found in Pakistan is a Kamori which is found in the Sindh province.
