A sheep gave birth to a dead lamb with a human-like face. The calf was born in a village not far from the city of Izmir, Turkey.
Erhan Elibol, a vet, performed Cesarean section on the animal to take the calf out, but was horrified to see that the features of the calf’s snout bore a striking resemblance to a human face.
“I’ve seen mutations with cows and sheep before. I’ve seen a one-eyed calf, a two-headed calf, a five-legged calf. But when I saw this youngster I could not believe my eyes. His mother could not deliver him so I had to help the animal,†the 29-year-old veterinary said.
The lamb’s head had human features on – the eyes, the nose and the mouth – only the ears were those of a sheep.
Veterinaries said that the rare mutation most likely occurred as a result of improper mutation since the fodder for the lamb’s mother was abundant with vitamin A, CNNTurk.com reports.
A goat from Zimbabwe gave birth to a similar youngster in September 2009. The mutant baby born with a human-like head stayed alive for several hours until the frightened village residents killed him.
The governor of the province where the ugly goat was born said that the little goat was the fruit of unnatural relationship between the female goat and a man.
"This incident is very shocking. It is my first time to see such an evil thing. It is really embarrassing," he reportedly said. "The head belongs to a man while the body is that of a goat. This is evident that an adult human being was responsible. Evil powers caused this person to lose self control. We often hear cases of human beings who commit bestiality but this is the first time for such an act to produce a product with human features," he added.
The mutant creature was hairless. Local residents said that even dogs were afraid to approach the bizarre animal.
The locals burnt the body of the little goat, and biologists had no chance to study the rare mutation.

Now that is deeply disturbing.

I like how they blame beastiality for this. Then again it is Europe. They were probably married.

Well.......... it's been said that the shepherds stood nigh by their flocks at night....... :clueless:

Like the vet in the article, I seen a lot of oddities in calves and sheep and it's just part of the deal. But, this would have me spooked for sure. It would also have me looking sideways at the neighbors...

On the other hand this is Pravda. They have fallen big time and are the Midnight Daily Globe of greater Russia.

I don't believe it. Why would it have a full sized human face and not the face of a baby.
I think that one has hoax written all over it.

I agree. Wouldn't a DNA test find the father? Poor baby lamb :(

I am inclined to agree,years ago we had some sheep here and lambs were spindly little things.

The whole scale of the carcass is out of whack for a lamb presumably taken by Cesarean (in and of itself a questionable thing given the costs).
The paunch,the ears as they relate to the hands etc.

You either have something to hide and want the eveidence destroyed, or you are angling for a ticket to Diversity Camp for your insenstive remarks to our Ovine-Human half-sibling.
