Identifying Birth Defects 

Goat born with eight legs and three earsThis goat has eight  legs and three ears.  This kind of birth defect results when the original fertilized cell fails to divide and forms two separate twin animals in a single goat body, with shared organs, and in this case, additional legs and ears. Birth defects like this are normally fatal.
