Best. News Story. Ever.

Apparently, a bunch of people in Japan spent thousands of dollars on lambs that they were told were poodles.

Because poodles are very rare in Japan and thus highly valuable.

Apparently lambs are rare there, too, but... for serious, how do you not know that you've got a farm animal in your apartment? "Hmmm, the dog keeps bleating... and he's got hooves... and he grazes whenever we talk him for walks... do you think that's a problem?"

I'm thinking that maybe I should gather up a bunch of parakeets and sell them in Japan as miniature Beagles...
