Chachoengsao, 'Jao Klaw-Nong Thongkwaw', the smart albino buffaloes at Wat Samanrattanaram in Mueang District, Chachoengsao Province, nodded in thanks and smiled broadly showing their teeth after the abbot fed them bananas. The abbot revealed that they were buffaloes that had been redeemed and given as offerings by relatives and devotees. Wat Saman Rattanaram, Bang Kaew Subdistrict, Mueang District, Chachoengsao Province is a famous temple that is widely known, especially for the largest reclining Ganesha statue in Thailand. But today, the abbot, Phra Pracha Thammanat, will take us to see the cuteness of the clever white buffaloes named "Chao Klaw and Nong Thongkwao" that the temple is raising. When talking to him, Jao Klao, a young pink-skinned buffalo, nods his head as if he knows what he is talking about. Especially when the abbot gives him bananas, he nods his head in thanks. As for Nong Thongkwao, a female albino buffalo, when she sees a banana or is told to smile, Nong Thongkwao will smile, showing h er lower teeth clearly. The abbot said that these white buffaloes were donated by the laypeople, and some were redeemed from the slaughterhouse. The temple has two other barns that take care of the cows and buffaloes redeemed by the laypeople. The temple considers these white buffaloes to be animals that benefit the temple because they help feed the remaining cows and buffaloes, as well as the many lives of the herders.
