People Whose Genetics Make Them Unique

Elf-Like Ears

The "Stahl's ear" syndrome which is caused by an excess of cartilage in the person’s ear, resulting in ears that are naturally pointed – thus the moniker “elf ears” for these people is a common phenomenon amongst one in 15,000 infants, although many of them either outgrown it or opt to have surgery to correct it later on. We can’t say that we blame them since when it comes to “being different,” children can be very hurtful.
