Zoran Paparic’s goat Sarka gave birth to the kid which also has both male and female reproductive organs at his farm in Kutjevo.

Local veterinarians told Mr Paparic that the young goat’s additional legs were caused by an undeveloped twin sibling.

Mr Paparic claims he thought he was seeing things when he realized Sarka had given birth to the disfigured child among two healthy newborn goats.

‘I counted his legs and I thought I was seeing things. Then I called my neighbour to make sure that I am not crazy.’

Mr Paparic describes the yet-to-be-named ‘octogoat’ as a ‘miracle of nature’, and says he would like to retain the child if it survives.

Hello world: The baby goat also has both male and female reproductive organs according to the farmer

Veterinarians say the goat is unlikely to survive, but if it survives the first week, it could live for two to three years, Mr Paparic told InSerbia.

‘Everything is double with him. Sarka, which I have had for three years, gave birth to a miracle of nature. This is her fourth time and she always has triplets.’

‘He is trying to stand on his feet, but lacks strength.’
