THREE-LEGGED LAMB BORN IN SISIAN
- The lamb was born in the village of Vaghati in Sisian about a month ago. The lamb is frolicking about just despite being born with three legs. Shepherd Arsen says it is the first time he has seen a three-legged lamb.
The unusual creature has stirred up public interest with its bizarre deformity. People hurry to photograph with the newly born lamb which doesn't seem to be causing any trouble to locals.
