Nature is always throwing weirdness at us, and today’s helping comes in the form of a hermaphroditic goat–a breedable male that can be milked.
A visitor to a goat show in Brazil did not hesitate to buy a hermaphrodite goat – a male goat that can be milked – when he first came across it. The goat is a clearly a Billy goat. And, translating the colloquial phrase “pai de chiqueiro”, implies that it can be mated with a female goat. But, as seen in the video, the scrotum region apparently serves a dual purpose of being a set of udders that can be squeezed to get milk.

Every inch of Marvins Marvelous Mechanical Museum's 5500 square feet of floor space with 40 foot ceilings containing an array of buzzing and clattering new and vintage mechanical devices and oddities. Overhead dangle signs, animatronic dummies, over 50 airplane models gliding along a steel rail, vintage fans of all types, and classic sideshow posters. Marvin himself travels the world looking for odd coin operated devices, both new and old. Some of his machines are custom made just for him, and can not be seen in operation anywhere else. Marvin's is also listed in the World Almanac's 100 most unusual museums in the U.S.
