Having become the mascots of this village of the Oise, are abandoned goats on the start?

Along the Trans'oise, to Ranvillers (Oise), this abandoned “bunch of goats” is talked about. The walkers who borrow the green flow have known them well, even if their future has been dotted for a few months.

The mayor, Laurent Lefèvre (SE), evokes the possibility of proposing these goats returned to the wild to adoption. He says he has “a start to the track”.

I contacted the spa and farms, no one wants it. We want cats or dogs, but goats …. but I may have someone who would welcome them on their property. Above all, I want to be reassured at their place where they would land later. The problem is that you have to have enough land, not just a small garden, to accommodate seven goats at once!

And that is not under the hoof of a horse.

From eco-pasting to eye

This hiker votes to continue to make eco-pasting to the eye in this village in the south of Beauvais. “It is really very pleasant to be able to meet goats when you walk along the Ru d'Auneuil, they must stay here,” said this resident, who, like 95 % of Ranvillois, symbolically adopted them .

“I agree, but on condition that it does not cause me any trouble,” retorts the mayor. Because there will always be refractory to their presence. “Some people want them to go because they say they are afraid for their dog. So if I find a peaceful place so that they can live, with nice people, I am ready to see them change my air. Even if it is true that children love them. They remain at a good distance from humans anyway, ”continues the elected official.

Nona, a resident of Beaumont-les-Nonains, had contacted Oise news When we published a first article on their subject two months ago. At the time, she even said herself ready to “launch a petition to protect them” and avoid euthanasia, a bit like in the Titine case, the wild boar of Saint-Valery-sur-Somme.

“I verbally surveyed many inhabitants of the village, and almost all want these goats here. They don't bother anyone ”.

“This remains a domestic animal”: hunters prohibited from drawing them

According to her, goats always frequent the same places. “At Christmas, they got closer to the center of the village, they were 100 meters from the road. But they are not approaching more than that for the moment, and are not likely to cause an accident on the road, “she says. As for the risk of proliferation of the species, this remains to be demonstrated. “They have been seven for several years these goats!” »»

Other Internet users were worried that they could be shot by hunters. But the risk is low.

“It is a domestic animaltherefore hunters have prohibited anyway to shoot them, ”certifies a federal hunting agent that we were able to meet in the field.
