Low on police officers? Hire a goat! That’s what the Rescue and Bomb Disposal Unit of the New South Wales (NSW) Police Force in Sydney, Australia, did. Just kidding. They do, however, have an honorary recruit in Boxer, a baby Boer goat.
Boxer was rescued after his mother was taken to the vet for an emergency C-section and subsequently died. Boxer was blue, but after working on him for 20 minutes, veterinarians were able to save him, The Daily Telegraph reports.
According to Mashable, Boxer was originally brought into the station to cheer up a colleague’s daughter who was recovering from an illness. The baby goat has since been a permanent fixture at the station, spending nights in the officers’ homes.
