A little white goat found wandering in Orléans is on its way to a new home on a farm.
A spokesperson for Ottawa's bylaw department said a resident found the animal near Trim Road and Highway 174 a few days ago and initially took it in before surrendering it to the Ottawa Humane Society.
The humane society, which doesn't have the resources to handle livestock, called bylaw for backup, Alison Sandor said.
Sandor said ordinarily the department would attempt to figure out where the lost animal came from, but there were no farms near the spot where the goat was found.
"We weren't able to find exactly where he came from," Sandor said.
In the United States, the states with the most types of rattlesnakes are Texas and Arizona.
