Escaped goats wreak havoc on suburb

Dozens of goats went on the lam Friday, munching their way through a suburban Idaho neighborhood, according to a report.

Neighbors were baffled by the new kids on the block, who were hoofing it from house to house in search of a meal in Boise, according to Joe Parris of local station KTVB.

“About 100 goats are on the loose right now in a #Boise neighborhood. They are going house to house eating everything in sight. Nobody has a clue where they came from,” he wrote on Twitter Friday.

Wild video footage shows the slow-motion stampede pause in a homeowner’s front yard to chow down on grass, according to Parris — who dubbed the phenomenon “Goat-a-Paloza 2018.”

The animals were later wrangled onto a truck by the firm We Rent Goats, which appeared to have accidentally set the animals free. The company didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

One observer pointed out a perk: “Free lawn mowing.”
