Oldest Goat Ever, Dies At 35 by gordii(m): 10:42am On Feb 25, 2017 |
It sounds or look funny to some people but it’s worthy of note. Have we ever wondered why we haven’t found ourselves in the Guinness book of records? It’s because we neglect those things that ought to put us there. History has it that the oldest goat ever lived was McGinty it lived for 22years 5months but today a goat called Mama Goat in Anyigba Kogi State died at 34 years 11 months and 23days breaking the records of McGinty. I do hope this finds it’s way to the Guinness world records. The goat called Mama Goat, owned by Hajia Rekiat, died at her residence, somewhere along Agala-Ogane road Anyigba Kogi State, in the Dekina Local government area. The goat died after a brief illness suspected to be from old age. Hajia Rekiat who confirmed that she bought the goat with her first salary at the then Benue State now Kogi State civil service in appreciation to her first pay will be retiring in March 1st, 2017 said that her father who was a hunter reared so many animals but never has she seen or heard of any animal who clucked 20 talk more of attaining such age as Mama G. She expressed sadness adding that she had intentionally kept and protected the animal as a remembrance of her first pay in the civil service, she said, she could have consumed or sold it but let it live because of the exceptional qualities and memory behind it. Mama Goat understands and responds to her local language and of course the mother of all her existing goats. In her words she said it dawned on me to express this haven seen the importance of appreciating God almighty for his unique ways and also using this medium to express to our people that it’s now time we celebrate our things in unique ways. If we don’t air, how will they know?.

gordii:most times this kinda records can't be verified, so it can't be assumed to be valid, just the same way the record of the oldest living people can't be easily verified especially in Africa and Asia where i believe there are much older people, still breathing, than what the Guiness records has, which i think stands at 126 years or so. Btw the owner tried oh, i hope it's not recession that made her do this... The picture doesn't show the full body, esp the head. |
