More
than 20 goats, worth $10,000 were stolen from a Hawaii farm last week in a
nasty act of livestock wrangling. The
thieves used duct tape on the muzzles of the goats to keep them quiet. The thieves left behind other goats at the
family farm on the north shore of Oahu, muzzles taped and tied together by the neck.

Cattle
wrangling is an ancient crime in Texas that still finds purchase in current
times, with a man in Cleburne, Texas sentenced to fifteen years for the theft
of five calves in July 2013. (Full Story)
This
is the first I’ve heard of goat wrangling.
Hopefully in Hawaii, they’ll take this theft and animal cruelty as
seriously as they do in Texas.
