A Romanian farmer hopes he will get into the Guinness Book of Records as the owner of a healthy five-legged sheep.

Taha Khayal from Girisu de Cris village in Bihor county said he was very surprised to find the strange animal while he was shearing his new herd of sheep.

The farmer bought the sheep from people in the area with the intention to sell them abroad.

He told Adevarul newspaper he believes the five-legged sheep is a "divine miracle" and he wants to save the animal from export and feed him in special conditions.

He intends to contact Guinness officials to get his sheep included in the Book of Records.
