First Encounters: Two Kid Goats Meeting Up With a Porcupine
For the love of baby animals, you have to see this. A tiny Nigerian dwarf goat kid, Ruth, and mini Nubian goat kid, Sonia is introduced for the first time to a porcupine, while out on their daily walk at the Oregon zoo. The porcupine is named Sharpie, for some or other peculiar reason…
Zookeeper Brianne Zanella does not only tell us about the introduction but also educates the viewer on some of the interesting information of all the animal types involved in this scheduled meeting. She dispels one of the biggest myths surrounding the porcupine.
No parental guidance required. No violet scenes in this clip, except for some light head butting between the goats. Might be your first opportunity to see some cat-footed goats…
Enjoy this extra-species encounter of the first kind, brought to you with courtesy of the extraordinary, Oregon zoo.
