loose in New Zealand

A gang of feral goats are on the run from
authorities in New Zealand
Officials say a total of 16 wild goats
make up the mob and they have been very busy destroying gardens and local flora
on the country’s South Island .
Authorities have so far been unable to
catch the feral animals amid concerns they could cause a traffic accident in
the small town of Blackball
Animal control officers in the area do
not know where the goats escaped from and it is unclear if their reign of
terror extends to other towns and cities.
The unruly gang hide from officials at
night but are said to congregate and come out during the day to continue to
terrorise the neighbourhood, the New Zealand Herald reports.
“They just come through and wreck
everyone's garden,” explained animal control officer Murray Malloch. “They eat
it and then move on to another one.”
