Now you can buy goats online for Bakrid

With Bakrid or Eid-ul-Zuha just a day away, instead of going to the 'bakra chowks' to select the sacrificial goat, people are buying them on online selling platforms like Quikr and Olx, reports a leading English daily.

The ads on the e-retail sites describe the breed, weight, physique, and even virility, if the buyer is looking to buy for breeding purposes.

One can view the images of goats, call the owner and strike the deal.

Counter arguments are also made by animal farmers, reports an English daily. They are sceptical of buying an animal just by looking at the images. According to these farmers, an animal has to be cared for and checked for injuries before selling it.

Sellers are shooting down this argument saying the buyer can visit the seller, check the animal for injuries or disease and after complete satisfaction can make the payment.
