A search and rescue team in West Yorkshire were called to rescue a goat after
it had apparently become stranded on a rocky ledge, but after three hours of
trying to free the animal, the goat simply jumped to safety without any
help.


Calder Valley Search and Rescue Team scrambled nine volunteers to a rural
hillside after villagers reported the animal, a local mascot they called "Black
Rock Billie", had been "stuck" on a ledge for up to five days.


Rescuers lowered a rope down the hill to reach the goat, but as they got
within touching distance of Billie she unexpectedly jumped onto nearby rocks
and leapt ten feet down into a field.


Onlookers cheered as Billie trotted away unscathed.
