It's Not A Pig, Nor A Dog Or A Wombat - This Weirdly Muscular Animal Is Something Else Entirely, Designed For Only One Thing (Pictures & Comments)

No, this animal isn't your grandmother's overfed chihuahua. It also isn't some new crossbreed of a kangaroo and a bulldog - it's actually a sheep. This sheep is called a Beltex, it's a shorter, stubbier breed of sheep that is very muscular and primarily bread for meat. This little guy looks, well, like he's in his birthday suit because he is! They look more like sheep when they have all their wool, but that doesn't change that they look like a weird cross between a kangaroo, a chihuahua, and a pig without it!

The internet, of course, had a field day with this picture, with so many silly comments we could do a whole separate listicle just to cover them (but we won't because we put them all here for your viewing pleasure). Scroll down to laugh your wool off and see what these little guys actually look like. They're cuter than you would think!

It's like someone put a chihuahua's head on a pig's body, right? So strange, but we still think it's kind of cute. He can't help what he looks like naked, and we shouldn't body shame him. He'll grow into his fluffy-self soon enough.

Now that you think about it, they would be good in battle. Imagine these muscular sheep just running around and head-butting your enemies when you least expect it. They have the element of surprise!
