Devotees at the Hare Krishna Centre decided to jointly sponsor and adopt a young calf at the 'Care for Cows' goshalla in Vrindavan. They were much impressed by Kurma Rupa Prabhu's cow protection programme.

Devotees gave the snow-white calf born on Govardhana Puja day the name Chandini, which means white like the rays of the moon. Chandini was only just over a week old when devotees visited her on their pilgrimage during the month of kartik in 2009.
