After pulling over a car that cut him off on the road, a patrol officer with the Morgan Hill, California Police Department heard what he thought was the sound of a baby crying coming from the trunk. Shockingly, upon looking inside, he found a small black and white goat who had been hog-tied, but was still alive and struggling for freedom. A little later, he discovered that the goat had been there for two days without any food and water, let alone adequate air to breathe, and called on local Animal Control for help. From there, the little goat, now named Noel, found refuge at our California Shelter. Read more about this sweet boy’s rescue and recovery at Farm Sanctuary.

Such a beautiful little goat; such a monster of a "human" to have shut this darling little goat in the boot of a car as was done. Thank goodness for this rescue. Just another great reason to support Farm Sanctuary!!
