Respected devotees,

Dandavat Pranam. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I am looking for a detailed answer of this question-

Why do Hindu gods and goddesses use animals as their vehicles? 

Kindly help. Thank you.

Regards,

Your servant, siddha svarupa das

Respected Prabhuji,

Pranam

Jay Srila Prabhupada

As you know, traditionally, it was common to use animals as vehicles because that was the only medium of transportation.

It looks surprising nowadays, as people are used to modern machines.

What exactly is your question?

Your humble servant,
