their character, nature, colour, quality age etc., etc., Such animals should be caught in their early ages and kept in cages and protected well by Rajahs, Nobles and others. Those who do not protect the animals in the world, will never get fame, virtue and pleasure. Those who protect cows, for a long time in their palaces,, bungalows, houses, (as the case may be) and give them in charity to Brahmins both before and after death, get VIRTUE and MOKSHA. Thcugh the anime als cannot talk as human beings, they are very useful to people. They can do the work entrusted to them pretty, well.
