(Baonghean.vn) –With the custom of letting animals roam freely in livestock farming, people in the western region of Nghe An often wear a bell around each animal's neck to mark and manage them easily.This is a popular and highly effective method in animal husbandry.
 |
For a long time, herds of buffalo and cows that were let loose on hills or fields were given bells by people to make it easier to manage. |
 |
Bells worn for buffaloes come in square and round types. In the photo: A buffalo is grazing by the roadside and is wearing a round bell. |
 |
The cows grazing on the hills in Keng Du commune (Ky Son) all wear bells. |
 |
This bell is round and made of iron. Inside is an iron bar that makes noise when the cow moves. |
 |
A cow wearing a bell was standing still, looking "pensive" in the middle of the forest. |

In addition to buffalo and cows, people also buy bells for goats to wear. |
 |
The goat's rattle is smaller, like a tiny bell. |
 |
Goats are difficult animals to manage, so wearing bells makes it much easier to find them in the mountains and forests. |
