SHAH ALAM, June 6 (Bernama) -- Two premium Limousin cattle named Upin and Ipin, weighing 780kg and 800kg respectively, are among 22 gigantic cattle set to be sacrificed at the Tayyib Ranch Qurban Carnival at Shah Alam Stadium this year in conjunction with Aidiladha celebrations.

'In addition to Upin and Ipin, heavy-muscled cattle from other premium breeds such as Brahman, Charolais, Blonde, and Black Angus, will also be slaughtered at the carnival.
'These cattle, aged between three and four years, were brought in from Kelantan and Terengganu. They weigh between 700kg and 1,000kg and are priced from RM10,000 to RM45,000 each,' he told Bernama.
Mohd Sakhedan noted that demand for lembu sado or these gigantic cattle, continues to rise each year, as the public becomes more aware of the importance of choosing the best animals for the Qurban, a significant sacrificial rite performed by Muslims during Aidiladha.
'These gigantic cattle are preferred for their larger meat yield and superior quality, making them ideal for distribution to underprivileged communities as a valuable source of nutritious food,' he said.
Mohd Sakhedan said a total of 100 cattle will be slaughtered over a continuous 48-hour period until Sunday, giving the public a chance to witness Tayyib Ranch's livestock management and Qurban operations.
'We've also received approval from the Selangor Islamic Religious Department (JAIS) to perform the Aidiladha prayers at the carnival site, followed by a communal feast featuring Beriani Daging Lembu Sado as the main dish,' he added.
