OT: 2016 Ig Nobel Prizes awarded

Regarding one winner:
"You might recall the "goat man," Thomas Thwaites, who built a special suit that made him ... goat-y. He shared the Biology Prize with a man who lived "in the wild as, at different times, a badger, an otter, a deer, a fox, and a bird."
"Human life can just be so difficult," Thwaites told NPR a few months ago. "And you look at a goat and it's just, you know, it's free. It doesn't have any concerns."
And he told our Goats and Soda blog that goats aren't great conversationalists. "They're much more about smell and body posture," he said."

Dolly the sheep. Pretty sure she's dead, but there are more like her. Cloned sheep, not dead sheep. Although there are plenty of dead sheep.
What was the question?
