[Nathan McCorkle]

This Irish goat managed to create a new/rare strain of himself! Will
the Government nab him for working without a license?

I was reading this and the whole idea of hybrid vigor is very interesting.  Although I'm not sure what advantages a Geep would have, and they sound fairly rare.  For mules at least, there are so many benefits over a horse its kind of fascinating, except of course for the ability to breed.

They look cute and probably can defend themselves with their horns (unlike sheep).

And maybe they even produce wool.

What do you want more? :D
