Newborn Goat Nicknamed ‘Octogoat’ For Its Eight Legs

We’re pulling for this amazing little goat:

A farmer from Croatia thought he was seeing double when his goat Sarka gave birth to an eight-legged baby, nicknamed ‘octogoat’.

Vets believe the newborn’s condition is the result of an under-developed twin sibling because it has both male and female reproductive organs.

Vets have said it is highly unlikely the goat will survive but if it lives past the first week, it may go on to live for two or three years.
