A three-year-old gigantic water buffalo has become the world's tallest from his kind, with a height of 6 feet and 0.8 inches, from hoof to withers.
The majestic buffalo is named King Kong and is a resident of theNinlanee Farm in Nakhon Ratchasima. He is almost 20 inches taller than the usual adult water buffalos, according to the Guinness World Records.
Owner Suchart Booncharoen said it was expected of King Kong to grow to this massive size as he was huge at the time of his birth and that is why he was named after the iconic gorilla from the film, according to UPI.
An employee of the farm, Cherpatt Wutti, said despite King Kong being of an intimidating size, the buffalo is quite friendly and playful.
"He is very obedient. He loves to play around, he loves to be scratched, and running around with people," she said.
"He is really friendly and it's like having a big, powerful puppy on the farm," she added.
