Baaaaad boys: Two goats chase jogger in Ontario

Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are on the hunt for the owner of two “baaaad” boys who chased down a jogger during their run in eastern Ontario over the long weekend.

On Sunday just after 8 pm, OPP posted an image to X (previously known as Twitter) that showed the friendly goats on the loose near a campground about an hour outside of Ottawa.

#GrenvilleOPP is looking for assistance with locating the owner of these two “baaaad” boys.

According to police, the goats chased after a person jogging on Country Road 2 near the Grenville Park Camping & RV Park in Johnstown, Ontario.

The hilarious tweet naturally resulted in lots of clever responses from commenters, who used the incident as an opportunity to pull out their best goat-related puns.

“Now this is a very goat tweet,” one person joked.

“But did the runner best his time? I think goat trainers can be the next training coaches,” another animal lover suggested.
