However, this is not a new thing for the veterinarian at the goat rearing centre. Veterinarian Tushar Nimade said that he had seen a he-goat yielding milk around 10 years back.
"The reason is hormonal changes in the goat's body. There is one such case in every thousand. The milk has been tested, there is no difference between the male goat's milk and normal goat milk," Nimade added.
The private rearing centre was established six years ago at the district headquarters and it has over 350 goats of some 10 different species.
"There is no difference in the quality of the milk, it is same, normal goat's milk," Akhtar added.
He said ever since the news hit headlines, farmers, tourists and researchers have started flocking to the centre on a regular basis. (ANI)
