Villagers are terrified by a monster described as “half-human, half-sheep,” and they believe it was sent from HELL.
Elders in a remote South African village are terrified, believing that a deformed, stillborn lamb that resembled a human was “sent by the devil” and born as a result of bestiality and witchcraft.
After images of the monster began to circulate throughout the rural community of Lady Frere in Eastern Province, the superstitious residents believed it was part human.
Dr Lubabalo Mrwebi, the Eastern Province’s Chief Director of Veterinary Services, acknowledged that the stillborn lamb resembled a human but was not part human.
He said the lamb was infected with Rift Valley Fever early in the pregnancy, a fever-causing viral disease common in eastern and southern African sheep and cattle-raising regions.
“The deformed lamb exhibits signs that are consistent with an early foetal development that went wrong as a result of a viral infection and nothing more.
“We can confirm this not a hoax photo but that the severely deformed lamb was born by a sheep in Lady Frere this week, which at a glance resembles a human form,” Dr Mrwebi said.
“Many people are afraid and will not be happy until it is burned” he said.
The Eastern Cape Department of Rural Development is doing a post-mortem on the lamb, and the results will be made available to the inhabitants of the rural community.
