    In ba-a-a-a-a-ffling mystery, third goat found wandering near Bronx highway

    A third goat was found Tuesday near the Hutchinson River Parkway in the east Bronx near where two others were found in July.


    It's a ba-a-a-a-a-ffling mystery.



    Abandoned goats keep turning up on a stretch of a Bronx highway. One young goat was found near the Hutchinson River Parkway in the east Bronx near where two others were found in July.

    The emaciated and sick male was discovered Tuesday on the grounds of a nursing home near the junction of I-95 South and the Hutch.
    That's the same area where two other goats, now named Isadora and Duncan, were rescued in late July.

    The goats now reside at Farm Sanctuary's shelter in upstate Watkins Glen.
    "It looks like the Hutchinson River Parkway has become something of an 'underground railroad' for goats looking to escape New York City's live markets with their lives," said Susie Coston, Farm Sanctuary's national shelter director.

    After discovering the young goat, the nursing home director called the city's Animal Care & Control agency.

    She then placed the goat in the children's yard of the nursing home's daycare, where she and staff reportedly enjoyed watching him duck in and out of a playhouse.

    "The goat is not doing well," said Meredith Turner, spokeswoman for Farm Sanctuary. "He has a really bad case of pneumonia, and when he arrived at the shelter last night he had a very high temperature."
    "He'll get top-of-the-line care, as do all the animals at our shelter."
    Richard Gentles, director of administrative services at Animal Care & Control said yesterday that no one really knows why the goats keep turning up near that intersection.

    "They don't have tags or markings that would indicate they are from a live market," he said. "Maybe someone owns them and are keeping them in their backyards."

    There are no live markets in the area. Gentles said the two goats found in July were "pretty comfortable" around people.

    Last year, a 25-pound pygmy goat named Goodwin was discovered near 141st St. and St. Ann's Ave. in the South Bronx.

    That's near where a 7-month-old lamb who escaped slaughter was found in June 2007.
