More Baby Goats!

Our Spanish Goat program has been very successful.  We are having a hard time naming our goats...because we had 10 babies born this week!  We manage two herds of goats, and each herd has one breeding male.  Our herds are managed by the American Livestock Breed Conservancy.  Purebred Spanish Goats are on ALBC's conservation watch list, so we are happy to have lots of babies this year.

Our intern Caleb holds Tarjeta.  Her mother is Letty.

Pinta.  Her mother is Nina.

Cabrita's baby girl was born yesterday afternoon.

Tarjeta and Mia's baby.

All of our mothers and babies are on exhibit (as of today), so come and visit them!  They may not always be visible because of the natural trees and bushes of the exhibit, but they are very curious, and will explore more as they get a bit older.  Please respect their privacy, and do not leave the paved visitor path.  We hope to see you soon!
