Yesterday a tribe of goats went wild in a neighborhood in east San Jose. Terry Roelands said the hill behind his home caught on fire about 15 years ago and since then, they use goats a few times a year to clear the brush. On Tuesday evening, one of the goats was eating flowers over a fence and somehow tapped one of the electric fences, causing it and others to break the boards on the fence, Roelands said. This allowed about 200 goats to escape through a backyard and out onto the streets. “When I got back from the store all the goats had broken through the fence and were wreaking havoc on our street,” tweeted Roelands’ son Zach. A rancher got the goats back onto the ranchlands in about five minutes, Roelands said. “This is the craziest thing to happen all quarantine,” Zach tweeted. Watch the video below.
