Kasaragod Dwarf is a breed of zebu (Bos indicus) cattle in Kerala. They originated in the mountain range of Kasaragod district.[1] The cows are known for their high milking ability and give mineral rich milk with high feed to milk ratio. The cattle require almost zero inputs and can be free ranged. They are one among the four prime dwarf cattles in India along with Malnad Gidda, Punganur, and Vechur cattle.[2]
