Man widowed after his goat 'wife' chokes to death

A Sudanese man who married a goat was in mourning today after his wife died when she swallowed a plastic bag.
Charles Tombe shot to fame last year when he tied the knot with Rose.
A court ordered him to marry the beast "to save her honour" after he was caught making amorous advances toward the mother-of-one in the middle of the night.
Mr Tombe and Rose are believed to have lived happily ever after until her life was cruelly cut short.
The story, which became one of the world's best read tales, began in Juba, southern Sudan, in February last year when the BBC reported that the then owner of the goat, Mr Alifi, was awoken in the night by a strange noise.
Walking out of his traditional hut, he was confronted by the sight of Mr Tombe and Rose in a passionate embrace.
Today the Times reported that Mr Alifi said: 'When I asked him "What are you doing there?" he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up."

Well Muslims did invent the condom. In the 16th century they started using goat intestines to prevent pregnancy. In the 18th century the British improved the product by first removing it from the goat.

I have a feeling the goat committed suicide, I know I would have in her place.
