Dog gives birth to cat in North Korea

A North Korean man has claimed that his dog gave birth to a kitten earlier this week.

London: A North Korean man has claimed that his dog gave birth to a kitten earlier this week.
Jeong Pyong-bong was happy to show off what he said was the dog’s kitten when he revealed the litter to the world in some photographs.
“It’s quite true. This is a miracle,” the Daily Mail quoted him as telling the Korea Herald as he showed off mother and offspring at his home. “After the little animal was born I stared at it in disbelief. It looked like a cat and was meowing like a cat. So how can it be a puppy? People from all over town have been calling at my house to have a look as the news has spread. “I think I know how this happened. My dog went for a long wander one night - in fact she was out all night - and I think she got up to some mischief with the ally cats. How else do you explain this?” he said. Despite his insistence that his dog’s puppy is a kitten, experts have said that such a “miracle birth” was genetically impossible. “It’s impossible for a dog to give birth to a cat,” Professor Son Chang-ho of Chonnnam National University’s College of Veterinary Science, said. “The number and trait of chromosomes in canines and felines are completely different. It is possible that this is a puppy that just looks like a kitten,” he added. A similar claim of a dog giving birth to a cat had been made in China a few years ago, while six years ago in Brazil it was claimed that a cat had given birth to two dogs. ANI
