The Iron-Age Pig
The Iron-Age pig has a wonderful name. Although it is meant to invoke the idea of fantastical and historic pigs from prehistory. This is of course a misnomer. People did not live in caves in the Iron Age. The real reference for the hybrid pig comes from the prehistoric cave paintings found in ancient caves. The Iron-Age pig is bred for its visual characteristics. Those that have ended up in the wild have thrived, although the same cannot be said for the biomes they invade. In the US they are considered an ecological pest and are culled on sight.

Geep – Sheep/Goat
Baby lambs are exceptionally cute. And baby goats are undeniably adorable. So, just imagine a pairing of the two! The Geep is exactly what the name suggests, The offspring of a goat and a sheep, and it’s far more adorable than what you could imagine. It’s a fine-looking animal, one that is extremely rare and hard to come by. The genetic pairing is not an easy match. Offspring are usually still-born, and infants rarely survive to adulthood.
