Alpacatalpa

Alpacatalpa: noun. Alpacatalpa is a term used to describe a very unlikely (but possible) situation that eventually happens in a series of unexpected events. The word itself came from the conjunction of the words "alpaca" and "catalpa" gaining the meaning of "alpaca in a catalpa." While botanist-zoologists would immediately understand the paradox of this situation, it is necessary to explain to the rest of the readers that finding an alpaca in a catalpa tree is highly unlikely not only because both are found at quite different latitudes, but also because of an alpaca´s weight, which would restrict its ability to climb trees and the ability of other people to push it up there. However, no one disagrees with the fact that an alpaca may eventually end up in a catalpa, which was proved in 1982 when a group of astronauts spotted an alpaca in a catalpa orbiting one of Saturn´s moons. It has since been deduced that both had appeared there as a result of the random movement of particles, but at the time, the USSR was suspected of rather questionable and possibly even reprehensible space colonisation techniques.
