A goat gave birth to a deformed calf in the northwest Indian state of Rajasthan, whose face had features described by some as "strangely human-like".

The malformed kid was filmed on January 19 in a small village of Nimodia, Chaksu Tehsil, in Jaipur.

The perplexed owner is seen picking up the animal by its scruff and showing its face to the curious crowd who had gathered in hordes to admire the unique creature.

According to the reports, the disfigurement has hindered the calf's vocal cords as it is still unable to produce sound.
