GusGus—possibly the cutest baby goat ever—was abducted from the Arizona State Fair this past Wednesday. NPR<\/a> reports that it\u2019s likely a fair-goer tucked this little guy in a bag or jacket and left the grounds with him. Luckily a Good Samaritan found GusGus wandering by a canal in Phoenix and dropped him off at a pet store.<\/p>\n

Petting zoo manager Emilie Owen tells Business Insider<\/a> that the goat-hero “literally saved GusGus’ life by finding him.” Since GusGus is still nursing, he cannot survive without his mother\u2019s milk.<\/p>\n

GusGus has since been returned to his mom, Custard, who was visibly distressed since his dissappearance. The pygmy goat superstar was welcomed back<\/a> to the fair with a banner, balloons, and applause. GusGus\u2019 family, including fair staff, expressed their gratitude to all those who helped to spread the word of the young goat\u2019s disappearance, including the hashtag #FindGusGus<\/a>. The fair petting zoo plans to increase security to prevent incidents like this in the future.<\/p>\n
