Strange Hunter Ceramic Figure?

[Furismo]

I bought this at a thrift shop today. I was wondering what it was, and what the value would be. I can't find any info anywhere.

Google the company name on the bottom of the piece....looks like 50s ceramics. Might also look under collectibles (ceramic figurines) on e-bay....goat

Don't know why, but I like it for some strange reson.
May I ask how much you paid for it?

I think it was a prize for not being able to guess someone's weight at a carnival.

looked it up and surprisingly it was a quite common piece which today you can buy for 3 dollars on eBay,you pay more for shipping then the actual piece!
