Well it was a very long time ago, I was about 15. Me and my pal found a goat wandering down the road near our high school during the summer holidays. We grasped a horn each and took it to the corner shop. The shopkeeper sent us away so we went back up the lane and the goat calmly took itself back into the field it had escaped from. We closed the gate behind it. The end.

That’s very good of you Bean. I once rescued a lamb who had got itself on the wrong side of the fence.

I had to help guide the school sheep out of the classroom and down the corridor when it wandered into our RE class.

I guess what we did was less of a rescue and more taking it for a walk.

There were cows wandering where they shouldn’t in my ‘hood yesterday. I’d be delighted to catch a roaming goat though.

They are beautiful cows :love2:. I hope they made it home safely too. In the meantime they look like they’re having a super day out :)).

Oh wow, all these wandering animals!

I have checked and the sheep is apparently back where she belongs!

My friend once had to wrestle a sheep in the pub carpark whilst she was wearing crocs. She was a sheep farmer though, so I think it's par for the course. Also, my dad once had a sheep on the roof of his shed. Honestly, I have hundreds of sheep stories if you want? There wasn't much else happening in my village when I was growing up.

We were coming home from a works night out and came across a donkey running down the road.

Imagine the scene...two slightly tipsy women in heels chasing a donkey whilst the driver was trying to guide the donkey into a garden then someone in a quad bike came along and we cornered the poor donkey into a randoms back garden.
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either, just fuck off and leave me alone.

Oh! I would find it funny but the people who take care of it must feel absolutely gutted.
