Photo: Melanochromis / Wikimedia CommonsUTHAI THANI — While most families must visit a zoo to see a serow, a rare type of goat-antelope, one simply bolted into the bedroom of a home in central Thailand on Thursday night.Suwanna Puengket said the vulnerable and protected species leapt through the windows of her daughter’s bedroom as she was playing guitar at about 7:30pm on Thursday and wandered around the residence until officials arrived to tranquilize it.“My daughter and I were very frightened, so we ran outside and shouted for our neighbors to see what the creature was,” Suwanna said. “I thought it was a buffalo.”Only 1,000 to 1,5000 serows are thought to live in the wild in Thailand.

ggt Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I feel certain this is an ancestor bringing a message to the family... "Do not marry farangs...or your children may end up looking like me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyflower Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 ggt I would rather have my children looking like the animal than some of the farangs I see in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
