Pygmy goat found;
caught in roundup
MONACA, Pa. (AP) - A 20-
pound goat on the lam for more
than two weeks was captured
during a weekend roundup.
"We had all the neighbors
going 'Baaaa' in the woods last
night, if you can imagine that,"
said Center Township Police
Chief Barry Kramer. "I was final
ly able to get close enough to
get the net over it."
The animal — believed to be a
domestic pygmy goat — was
being put up temporarily at
Kramer's house until the chief
locates the owner or finds it a
new home.
