PHOENIX (AP) – A baby pygmy goat has been taken from a petting zoo at the Arizona State Fair, leaving a mother without her kid.
Petting zoo manager Emilie Owen says GusGus went missing Wednesday sometime between 5:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. and immediately notified security.
Owen says GusGus, a pygmy goat that weighs less than 5 pounds, can easily fit under a jacket or a purse.
She says the animal’s mother, Custard, has been crying for him.
According to Owen, the baby goat needs his mother’s milk to survive.
