Those… Those Aren’t Goats

At the Oregon Zoo, the keepers like to introduce animals who might never meet any other way, by taking pygmy goats Ruth and Sonya out to meet and greet the neighbors. In this video, they meet a herd of elephants, including a pygmy elephant who’s toured the zoo herself.

The reaction of the normally frisky goats can be best described as stunned amazement, including a moment when one of them shoots the camera a look that says “Are you guys seeing this?”

    I wish some Tiny Goats would Visit me. Or a Tiny Elephant. I’m not picky.

      I too could accept a visit from any of these wonderful critters. Or I could go work at that zoo.

        Yes – my first thought was that Eccentric Russian Billionaire commercial!

    The next animal they visited was called “Chupacabra, and he was VERY boingy! He “Spronked” if I read correctly.

    I love the elephants so much.

    I watched the video with spronking Chupacabra, so cute! I see there is a whole series of Tiny Goat Visits videos, so guess what I’ll be doing today?

    I can’t find the tiny goats visit the lion’s exhibit. I must know how that went!

    But love, love, love these videos <3
