"Simba" is a young billy goat from Pakistan who is causing a sensation on the internet.

The reason for this are his long floppy ears, with which he inspires fans.

The white goat "Simba" is a real celebrity in her native Pakistan.

From birth, the young billy goat has a unique selling point that sets it apart from its peers.

Simba has very long, cute floppy ears.

When the little one was born, his owner and breeder Mohammad Hasan Narejo noticed that he had extraordinarily long ears for a goat.

What's more, the older Simba gets, the more his eavesdroppers grow.

At times they reached a length of 55 centimeters, which made the young billy goat a real internet sensation.

Little Simba may only be almost two months old, but he's already a big star in the Pakistani media and around the world.

Accordingly, the kid is said to be in great demand, countless people from the local and international press have already come by to report on Simba.

His keeper Narejo is rightly proud of the special kid.

No wonder, because at 55 centimeters the young billy goat probably even has the longest ears in the world!

And his owner still has big plans for the little one: He wants to get Simba into the Guinness Book of Records.

But the long ears also bring pitfalls.

When playing and romping, the little tomboy keeps stepping on his floppy ears.

Because of this, Narejo ties Simba's spoons together to keep him from tripping and/or injuring himself.

That would be fatal, because the even-toed ungulate with the gigantic ears is said to have won several trophies in some beauty contests.

The eavesdroppers are Simba's capital, which is why his breeder takes special care of him.

Because he reports in interviews that he has never received so much attention in the four years that he has been breeding goats.

He also has another goal in mind: Narejo wants Simba to have as many offspring as possible.

And who knows, maybe they'll get even longer ears?!
