One-Eyed Wonder: 'Cyclops' Goat Born in India

A very rare goat with one enlarged eye was born on May 10 in the northeastern Indian state of Assam.

The mutant goat also has only one ear, and its brain's two hemispheres are not separated. The anomaly that causes such defects is called cyclopia and can also affect horses, pigs and cows. Most animals with this condition die within a few hours after their birth, but this little one seems to be doing all right. Some villagers believe the animal is sacred and rush to worship the miraculous one-eyed goat.
