Boy born with a hairy tail goes viral
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported about a lad named Deshant, who was born with a hairy tail.
The Nepal boy was born with an appendage extending from his coccyx which now stands at 70cm.
Upon noticing the strange growth 5 days after his birth, his parents took him to local and international hospitals to get it removed.
They, however, began feeling happier about it after a local priest told them that he was a reincarnated god. The priest believes Deshant is a reincarnation of the Hindu god of Monkeys known as Lord Hanuman.
