Malaysia 2015 Farm Animals
Malaysian village landscape is filled with colourful
flora and diverse fauna. It often
consists of a wide variety of domestic animals adding a whole dimension to
rural life with both large animals like the water buffalo and the small ones
like the chicken in the fields.
A cornerstone of Malaysian life, the village
showcases the harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Typically villagers will keep and breed
chicken, water buffalo as well as geese and goats. They are amongst the most frequently found
domestic animals in villages. These
animals serve various purposes including as beasts of burden as well as a
source of nourishment.
60sen
Angsa ( Anse cygnoides )
A goose is a medium to large intelligent bird, with
a good memory for people, animals and situations making it naturally suitable
to guard the village against intruders. It
is also kept as a poultry for its eggs, meat and down feathers. It tends to get along with other domesticated
animals including chickens. It honks
loudly and can stretch its long neck out to great length when threatened. It also tends to look out for each other when
one is injured or sick. The young are
protected by its parents thereby increasing its survival chances into adulthood.
Its diet is purely vegetation.
80sen
Kerbau ( Bubalus bubalis )
Water buffalo cuts a bold profile with its curled
horns and bulky size. It enjoys streams
and rivers as the water helps to keep it cool from the tropical heat. Eventually used for meat, water buffalo is
also commonly bred for its bountiful milk quantity. In parts of Sabah ,
the water buffalo are trained for buffalo racing.
RM1.20
Ayam ( Gallus domesticus )
There are many breeds of domestic chicken although
most have been crossbred with the wild chicken from the jungle. Practically found in most villages, chicken is
known as the most hardy and easy to breed farm animal. Chicken eggs and meat can be a convenient and
nutritious source of protein that can be cooked in various types of Malaysian cuisines.
Miniature
Sheet RM3 Kambing ( Capra aegagrus hircus
)
The goat is a small-framed animal with prominent
eyes, curious by nature, intelligent with a well-developed sense of smell. It eat grass, short shrubs and nibbles on most
plants. A goat regurgitates its food to
get the most out of the food that it eats. Milk, meat and skin are the main products of
the goat.
