Bijapur: This buffalo would have been taken aback when it heard a mobile ringing in its tummy. But not as much as the callers. There were 7 missed calls! This may not ring true. But this incident was reported from Hosarolli village of Bilagi taluka of Bagalkot district recently. Farmer Ishwar Totager lost his mobile near his cowshed on Monday. He suspects it fell off his shirt pocket while he was cleaning the shed.

The mobile was packed in a plastic pouch and the buffalo must have swallowed the pouch. Totager forgot all about his phone. However, next day morning, he was surprised to find the pouch in the buffalo dung heap. The phone was not damaged as it had landed on the soft heap. What was more surprising was that the phone had recorded seven missed calls! No one knows what the callers heard. But the buffalo must have heard a ring every time a call was received. It must have wondered from where the moo-sic was coming.
