As most of the world is in quarantine due to doctors and health officials recommending social distancing or, even better, to self isolate if possible, nature is finding ways to claim back cities all over the world. We’ve already witnessed a lot of marvelous examples of nature getting back what’s rightfully hers, such as clearing up Venice’s canals.

We’ve also seen some wholesome human effort to make the lives of animals living among us at least a little bit more enjoyable and letting them roam as free as possible and meet other animals. This story is kinda continuing the same thread, only this time, the only help the animals needed from humans was to clear out the whole town in order for them to roam free. And the coronavirus lockdown became the perfect opportunity.

The coastal town of Llandudno in Wales became quite empty due to the UK being under coronavirus lockdown

This pack of wild Kashmiri goats saw that as a perfect opportunity and claimed the streets for themselves to roam freely

They seem to be quite enjoying city life, strolling down the streets and munching on some hedges

I think I just got a group of goats in Llandudno arrested.

Let me explain… first, I saw this from inside a dark pub (the one I live in currently). I thought I was seeing things. So I took some video: pic.twitter.com/RtxYG6htLC

Usually, the herd of around 120 goats only come down from the nearby Great Orme headland in extremely bad weather

So I decided to see what was going on. They stopped on Trinity Square, and decided the hedges there looked very tasty (tbf, they probably are if you’re a goat 🐐) pic.twitter.com/Sz7WnoQGsd

However, it appears they couldn’t miss this opportunity since all the humans locked themselves up at home

He’s taken over the role of “goat corespondent” as he calls himself now and is constantly posting new updates on Twitter

Stuart said he originally called the police on the goats last week for not being the best citizens, starting riots, and snacking on hedges

However, it seems he later had a change of heart

This shows what it’s all about. They’re scared of me (a human) in this. They don’t like people. They usually only come down from the Great Orme when it’s windy, and only the back streets at the top of Mostyn Street. Now lockdown means it’s empty, they’re going further than ever. pic.twitter.com/roZpNm61Qh
