Sick Goat Found Wandering on Grounds of New York City Nursing Home

NEW YORK – It's another case of the wandering goat in New York City.

Officials say an emaciated-looking Nubian goat wandered onto the property of a nursing home in the Bronx, where two other goats were discovered in July.

Animal shelter officials said the male goat was found Tuesday. He was feverish and suffering from pneumonia.

He has joined the other two goats, nicknamed Duncan and Isadora, at the Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, N.Y.

Animal Care and Control spokesman Richard Gentles speculates the animals could have escaped from someone's backyard, a farm or market where they would have been slaughtered for meat.
