The Incredible Tree-Climbing Goats of Morocco...

Before you jump to conclusions: no, these were not created by a bored geek in Photoshop. Amazingly, these uncanny animals are actually real: they climb the Argan trees of Morocco in search of food, which is otherwise sparse in the region. Over time they have become not only able to climb trees but downright adept at the art – the traipse across trees with a sure-footedness that is hard to imagine from a hoofed animal.

The droppings of the goats contain the kernels of the seeds they consume which are, strangely enough, used by locals to press and grind into oil. Even more disturbingly: this oil has a number of uses including culinary (yes, people eat it) and cosmetic (yes, they also smear it on themselves). You might want to skip over the versions of these products sold by local farmers for the somewhat cleaner mass-produced varieties. For a quarter-liter bottle of this goat-digested kernel-oil you can expect to pay from 15 to 50 dollars.

Known as skilled navigators of treacherous mountain conditions, maybe it isn’t such a surprise after all to find goats making their way up the steep and narrow trunks and branches of only slightly more dangerous trees. Unfortunately, the Argan tree is slowly being over-harvested so you may have to hurry to see the real thing.

Nigerian couple Ben (Bushoke)and Angela Ihegboro gave birth to a fair skinned, blue-eyed, blonde-haired baby girl which surprised all experts. The baby is not an albino. The scientific test also dispels any rumor of wife’s unfaithfulness.
 
Hii sintofahamu ya huyu mtoto nakumbuka ilinivuta sana kiisakologia na katika kuzama nikayapata haya toka kwa prof. Brian akisema This birth is extraodinary.
In mixed race humans the lighter variant of skin tone may come out in a child and this can sometimes be startingly different to the skin of the parents.
This might be the case where there is a lot of genetic mixing as in Afro-caribbean populations.
But in Nigeria there is little mixing.
That parents would have needed some form of white ancestry of their genes to be passed on.
Mtaalamu huyu akamaliza kwa kusema -
The hair is extremely unusual, even many blonde children don't have blonde hair like this at birth .
 
[h=1]'Penis Snake' Discovered In Amazon, Looks Exactly As You'd Think (PHOTO)[/h]

Don't worry, the "penis snake" is totally safe for work. Even though it looks exactly as you'd think.
The unusual species gained its NSFW nickname because of its appearance -- a broad, rounded head atop a thick, cylindrical fleshy body. "But this phallic squirmer isn't a snake at all but an extremely rare, limbless amphibian," notes io9's Lauren Davis.
Click here to see biologist Julian Tupan's photographs of the "penis snake."
The "penis snake" was first discovered in Brazil last November where engineers were building a dam in the Madeira River in Rondonia, according to Mongabay. Six of the unusual creatures were found at the time.
Biologist Julian Tupan identified the species as Atretochoana eiselti, a type of caecilian. Legless and lungless, this aquatic animal is thought to breathe through its skin. Tupan, who is working with the company building the dam, disclosed what little is known about the "penis snake" to Brazil's Estadao website, according to the U.K.'s The Sun.
"Of the six we collected, one died, three were released back into the wild and another two were kept for studies," Tupan reportedly told Estadao. "Despite looking like snakes, they aren't reptiles and are more closely related to salamanders and frogs. We think the animal breathes through its skin, and probably feeds on small fish and worms, but there is still nothing proven. The Amazon is a box of surprises when it comes to reptiles and amphibians. There are still much more to be discovered."
Previously, the U.K.'s National History Museum stated that no living populations of the A. eiselti had been found and only two preserved specimens were known.
This is not the first animal to be likened to the male genitalia and it will likely not be the last.
LOOK: The A. eiselti found in Brazil.
