Has it ever crossed your mind that if you were a dog or a cat you would be happier? Or maybe a crocodile or a fierce tiger? If yes, then do not feel troubled, you are not the only one who has ever wished for that. There are many people who turned themselves into an animal of their choice and felt free and happy to be in that form. The idea of finding peace in acting like an animal is not a new phenomenon.

Thomas Thwaites Spent The Holidays As A Goat
This is the weirdest holiday break you will ever hear about. UK-based designer Thomas Thwaites got the unique idea of spending the holidays like a goat. He collected all the scientific information he needed to mimic a goat and even learned to digest grass. He had a clear picture of what and why he was doing what he did. He said, “My goal was to take a holiday from the pain and worry of being a self-conscious being, able to regret the past and worry about the future,”
The interesting thing about Thomas Thwaites is that he did not suffice with his changed appearance and eating habits but he also consulted experts to know to think like a goat. In September 2014 he joined a herd of goats and the farmer gladly reported that the goats seemingly accepted his presence among them. Maybe the goats didn’t really care!
