it happens




China

Curious locals flocked to the home of owner Feng Changlin after news of the piglet spread in Fengzhang village, Xiping township.“It’s hideous. No one will be willing to buy it, and it scares the family to even look at it!” Feng told Oriental Today.He says the piglet looks just like a monkey, with two thin lips, a small nose and two big eyes. Its rear legs are also much longer than its forelegs, causing it to jump instead of walk.Feng’s wife said the monkey-faced piglet was one of five newborns of a sow which the family had raised for nine years.
Turns out, that this is the result of a neurological-facial malformation called Holoprosencephaly.
Here is hoping that doesn't happen again. Unless it was like a unicorn and Kangaroo...that could be awesomely scrumtralescent.
