I want to meet the Damascene goat herders who were periodically showing each other their breeding progress and going, "Nah dude, you're killing it, this is straight fire," until one day they wound up with this creature

Obsessed with Damascus goats lately. They look like they were created by H. R. Giger. They both looks and sound stupid as hell. An utter catastrophe of an animal. I love them.
