Boy with 31 fingers, toes






A boy born with 15 fingers and 16 toes underwent a 61/2-hour operation yesterday to remove the extra digits.





Doctors at a hospital in Shenyang, Liaoning province, said the gruelling surgery for the six-year-old boy from Harbin was a success, the China News Service reported.





Such conditions are usually genetic, according to experts.





The boy's mother said he had been ridiculed and called a 'monster' by his schoolmates in kindergarten.

Tree Goats! I'm not shitting you....

This is such pure insanity that I thought was a total hoax the first time I saw it, but those really are goats and they really are in trees.The tree the goats are in is an evergreen argan tree. It is found mostly only in Morocco. The tree reaches heights of 25-30 feet, and has a knobby, twisted trunk that allows for goat climbers. The goats climb the tree because they like to eat the fruit of the tree, which is similar to an olive.
