Lamb born with FACE OF A HUMAN terrifies village

A lamb born with a terrifying human face – which bares more than a slight resemblance to Jigsaw from Saw – gave a farmer the shock of his life.

Sheep farmer Blasius Lavrentiev, 45, had been waiting all week for his prized ewe to give birth.


But when the sheep finally went into labour he could not believe his eyes when he saw "the face of an old man" staring up at him.


Blasius said: "We had quite a tough winter and when I noticed she was pregnant I was delighted as it meant I would be able to sell the lambs and start making some money again.

"But when I went down to see how it was going I nearly died from shock when I saw what looked like the hairy face of an old man staring up at me.

"Her parents are both normal looking sheep so I have no idea how she ended up looking like this."


Now the lamb has become talk of the village in Dagestan, Russia.


Neighbour Dementi Galkin, 65, said: "I’ve seen some weird stuff in my time, but nothing like this.


"She looks like an angry old man with a big nose."


Villager Dana Mishina, 56, said: "She is both freaky and sweet. I don’t know what to make of it really.


"But she terrifies my grandchildren.


"It will be interesting to see what she looks like when she gets older."


Blasius said a local circus offered him 10 times the normal price for a lamb but he refused.


"Whatever has caused it she’s a little beauty and I definitely won’t be selling her for anyone’s dinner table either as the buyers want her on display," he said.


"She’ll be staying with us until then."
