  • In May 2021, a video of a young cow with Dumbo ears went viral after it was shared to the Biggest Bulls of the World Facebook page: This is a genuine video of a calf with big droopy ears, similar to those of the famous little elephant from the classic Disney film Dumbo. American audiences may find this sight a bit unfamiliar, but there's nothing especially unusual about this cow. In fact, larger cows that also have long droopy ears can be seen in the background of the video. This video was originally shared by ณณรงค์ ตันเจริญ (translated to Ronnarong Tancharoen) on TikTok under the handle @Peem.7736. The TikTok account doesn't offer much biographical information, however, a Facebook page bearing the same profile pic and name describes themselves (loosely translated) as a local kid raising cows in Thailand. @Peem.7736 has shared several other videos of the viral Dumbo calf on Tiktok: @Peem.7736 wrote in response to one comment that this video shows an Indu-Brasil, a breed of cattle that is known for its extremely large ears. According to Oklahoma State University's Department of Animal Science, the ears of the Indu-Brasil may be the largest of any cattle breed: Here's a video of an adult Indu-Brasil bull: In short, this viral video is real and shows an Indu-Brasil calf, a breed of cattle with especially long, drooping ears, at a farm in Thailand.
