The Man Who Tried To Live As A Goat

Thomas Thwaites, a 34-year-old researcher from London, has spent the past year creating prosthetics that allow him to roam around on all fours like goat.

He’s studied their behaviour, learned their way of communicating and even attempted to create an artificial goat stomach to allow him to eat grass.

His efforts, funded by the government, culminated in a three day trip to the Swiss Alps, where he lived as a goat, roaming the hills with a herd.
