A new goat has arrived at Sewerby Hall and Gardens' zoo.
It has given a new home to the animal called Sammy after his owners contacted the zoo to see if they could take him, as his companion had unfortunately passed away and he was missing company, and lonely.
Head zookeeper John Pickering said:
“He is ten years old, and because we had just given a home to two other ten-year-old goats, Alfie and Jake, we thought he could join the two of them in the cliff top paddock. He has settled in really well and is enjoying the space.”
East Riding of Yorkshire Council says it is hoped that the zoo will be able to reopen on Monday, 12 April, in line with the government’s roadmap, and further details will be announced in due course.
