Biggest livestock deal in Kingdom
A Saudi businessman bought a white goat for a whopping SR13 million (Dh12.5 million) in the biggest livestock deal in the oil-rich Gulf Kingdom.
The owner said his male goat fetched that sum because it is one of the rarest and “most beautiful” goat breeds in the region.
“It was the largest single deal to involve the sale of a sheep in the Kingdom,” Arar newspaper said in a report from the Saudi capital Riyadh.

I think it’s main selling features were the long eyelashes and short erect tail.

Here’s a scary thought: Given the Bizarro World that he lives in, that goat may actually be a rational investment.
