Thanks for the replies. Having thought about it a bit more, I think it was misleading/sensational for the uploader of the original video to give the video such a title. The goat doesn't have a human face. It looks like a mutated goat face. As for the genetics, I looked up the number of chromosomes. Goats have 60, whereas humans have 46. So it would be impossible for them to match up during fertilisation.

Hi guys, I just wanted to ask a genetics question purely out of scientific curiosity. I bumped into a short video clip online showing what looked vaguely like a dead "Goat with a human face and 8 legs". Google it if you want to check it out. I won't post it here because it is a little freaky. Anyway, my question is: is this likely to be the result of a mutation or sex with a goat? I didn't think humans could interbreed with goats. LOL! OK, it wasn't exactly a successful breeding, but I didn't even think it would reach that stage. Cheers
