The Rathi breed is native to Bikaner and Ganganagar in Rajasthan. They are said to have originated from the crossing of the Sahiwal and Tharparkar breeds. It is found to be red or tan with occasional presence of of spots. The Rathi have gained some attention because of their disease and climate resistance capabilities. What’s surprising and ironic is that Muslims seem to have played a major role in breeding practices for around 150-200 years and now they are under threat simply because of our negligence and cross breeding.
