Seeing the goat walking on two legs, the owner took out his phone to record, what happened next caused shivers
When it comes to goats, many people will immediately think of a cute and gentle herbivore. However, is that the case? Perhaps you will be surprised to read the story below.
The clip about the unusual behavior of the goat caused an Internet fever
At the end of 2021, a clip spread on the Internet at breakneck speed recording a confusing and rather scary scene on a farm in Japan. Accordingly, the owner of the ranch recounted that one day, he saw his black goat suddenly had a strange expression. It did not walk on 4 legs as usual, but walked on 2 legs like a human, so it quickly used a mobile phone to record images.
The goat walks on two legs like a human.
From the shared image, a black goat can be seen walking slowly on its hind legs inside a captive area enclosed by metal trellis. Its front legs were drawn in front of its chest, a gesture that was unlike a normal goat.
What is remarkable and also scary is that, right behind the goat is a rooster. And after the rooster and the goat went inside the house, it was torn to pieces by the goat and eaten alive.
The rooster followed the goat, unaware of the terrible thing that was about to happen to him.
It is not clear whether the image was so gruesome that the farmer decided not to share it, or he did not have time to record it, only knowing that an animal that was supposed to be a gentle herbivore suddenly became " bloodthirsty" and turned into a carnivore, before walking on two legs like a human, surprising and even fearing many people.
So what happened?
Why does the goat walk on two legs and eat chicken?
Immediately after being shared online, the clip made many people "goosebumps" because of the unusual action of the black goat.
"Is it controlled by some supernatural force? Why does it look like such a scary satan?", 1 netizen commented.
"Just like a scene from a horror movie I've seen, goosebumps," another commented.
So how can we explain this? First of all, the goat suddenly walked on two legs.
The goat in India is also amazing with the ability to walk on two legs like a human.
There have long been many videos of goats walking on two legs and their owners have confirmed that they have trained them to walk in this way. However, even without human training, goats will still walk on two legs in certain situations, such as when fighting or having to eat leaves on tall trees.
In the wild, when animals attack each other, they tend to want to increase their body size to make them look bigger and more dominant, to scare the enemy, so standing on two legs is the most powerful thing. normal.
In addition, when they have to find food in high places that when standing on 4 legs cannot reach, they will also stand on 2 legs. This is a survival adaptability, so it is not uncommon for goats to suddenly walk on two legs.
In 2020, the clip recording a scene of a black goat in India is also popular on Youtube with nearly 1 million views.
However, the most surprising thing is why the goat "eaten" the rooster like that. Is it a herbivore?
In fact, the notion that carnivores will only eat meat without eating grass, and conversely, herbivores will only eat vegetables and grains without eating meat is incorrect.
A white goat once ate chicks.
In the wild, herbivores will sometimes eat meat and vice versa. If the habitat of herbivores has just undergone a large-scale change, if certain plant species - familiar food are no longer available, they will look to small animals to eat, to satisfy their survival needs.
Similarly, if carnivores can't hunt any prey, they also have to switch to eating plants temporarily so they don't starve to death. For example, originally, pandas were carnivores, but due to environmental changes, many large animals disappeared, their menus therefore also had to change to adapt. Therefore, we have pandas that eat bamboo leaves like today.
Of course, herbivores and carnivores have different body structures and digestive systems. For example, many herbivores have hoofed feet and non-sharp teeth. They are also not good at catching prey, and their digestive system is not suitable for digesting meat. Therefore, if it is not the end, they will not eat meat.
But in the clip above, the black goat lives on the farm, there is no shortage of food, why does it eat roosters?
In this regard, some experts believe that the phenomenon we have just witnessed is called Pica Syndrome, or folklore known as binge eating. It refers to when a person craves or eats non-food things, such as rocks or sand, or unusual foods. Most of the world's medical guidelines refer to Pica as an eating disorder.
It is possible that the cause of this Pica Syndrome is a lack of nutrients on the farm, causing the goats to turn to lime walls, waste or even hair, feathers or roosters as in the story above.
