More than 60 goats have gone missing in the last two months.
Kristy Picquette, a Kingsburg resident, found out that 11 of her Lamancha goats, a type of dairy goat, were taken late Thursday from a friend who was boarding them in Easton. Picquette had sent her family’s goats to her friend’s house temporarily while the pens at her home dried out following a series of storms that brought heavy rain to the region.Picquette’s two sons have been raising goats for the last five years as aproject.
“They feel very violated. They don’t understand how somebody could just come and take something they worked so hard for,” she said. “The bond we have with the goats is incredible. I’m just heartbroken. I don’t know if they’re scared or hungry. … They’ve always been treated so well.” Four of the stolen goats were recovered Sunday. They were found loose on a local road. Picquette said she suspected the animals had been dumped or gotten out from where they were being kept on Friday. She said the goats were unwell and that she planned to quarantine them for a time. But seven of the goats are still missing.
