  1. Beetle
  2. Barbari
  3. Jamunapari — Correct Answer
  4. Sirohi
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Jamunapari

Jamunapari (origin: Etawah, Agra, UP) is the biggest, most majestic and most beautiful breed of Indian goat (Table 26). Key features:

  • "Roman nose" (parrot mouth appearance)
  • Creamy white body colour with shining hair
  • Thick growth of hairs on buttocks known as "Feathers"
Goat Breeds with Roman Nose
  • Jamunapari — Indian breed (UP)
  • Beetle — Punjab/Haryana (buck has marked beard)
  • Anglo-Nubian — Exotic breed ("Jersey of goat")
Why Other Options Are Wrong
  • Beetle: Roman nose with marked beard in bucks, but NOT the biggest or most majestic.
  • Barbari: Dwarf breed ("city breed") — opposite of biggest.
  • Sirohi: A Rajasthan goat breed without the described features.
