Looks more like Jack Skellington from "The Nightmare Before Christmas" to me.

The human brain is designed to "make sense" of anything it sees. It will try to identify something even if it's unidentifiable. Random shapes have a tendency to look like faces because that is the thing we recognize most as a matter of survival, mating, or any other form of human or animal contact for the entire span of our evolution.

I've thought about selling something crazy like that. All you need is one nut with some money. I just wouldn't feel right taking advantage of someone like that though.

And no, that line does not make it ok for anyone to mate with an animal.

you must be "the current frontrunner of 500 camels plus all the parsnips they can eat" for trade

It seems to me that someone has been sniffing a little too much Homer gluehead.

I say that because back in my younger days after a night of partyin' I woke up in a strange place lying next to what I believed to be a rather large example of a Silver Back Gorilla. As I tip-toed around the room (making sure not to wake the beast) I carefully grabbed a hair sample from it's back. The results came back from the lab after about 10 days- Results: Human, sex unknown. I raised my arms in relief and said "Well, at least it was human!".
