Water buffaloes help poor farmers plough their rice fields in Laos. They can also be used to carry heavy loads.

These are highly revered in my village. In my hometown (in Laos) it's just 'na' after 'na' after 'na' etc, etc, etc.

Surely tracktors have taken over by now?
No more 'kuay-num'?

That cord through the nose and ears can't be too extremely comfortable.

William, Yes, poor thing. Although they look quite fat so they must be eating comfortably and well.

Larb Dip, Many farmers in the countryside still own buffaloes.

Is that the river in the second to last photo?
It looks alot like Hatxaifong!

Where do these buffaloes sleep?
Is buffalo poaching still going on?

Any such dish as 'larb kuay'? Now that would be something!
