is an animal that has a male testicle and also has a female vulva. He was also

the Agriculturist Apureño who was baptized this cerd @ hermaphrodite as
"Snowball", and already had the job of cutting the tail and
maintenance of fangs so that it does not hurt the mother's And is totally
hygienic and is with his mother in the delivery room where in this facility
there is no fly due to the maintenance work that is done on this farm. To such
reason Fernandez said, "these cases are exceptional and are some genetic
mutations. There are very few cases that happen in the world and that are why
these phenomena arise and we are presenting it to the world so that it is known
that in Apure. "
