== History ==
[[Image:Sahiwal breed origion.jpg|thumb|Map of '''Sahiwal region''' in Punjab, [[Pakistan]], origin of Sahiwal [[cattle breed]].]]
The [[Sahiwal]] originated in the dry Punjab region which lies along central Punjab. They were once kept in large herds by professional herdsmen called "Charwahas". With the introduction of irrigation systems to the region they began to be kept in smaller numbers by the farmers of the region, who used them as draught and dairy animals. Today the Sahiwal is one of the best dairy breeds in Pakistan. Sahiwal is calm when milking. Due to their heat tolerance and high milk production they have been exported to other Asian countries as well as [[Africa]] and the [[Caribbean]].
