Goat made dash for freedom at airport after escaping during loading

A runaway goat sparked a chase at Adelaide Airport in Australia on Monday morning. The goat managed to escape while it was being loaded into a crate at about 7.30am.



An Adelaide Airport spokesman said it took authorities 15 minutes to recapture the goat. The sight caused amusement for those waiting for flights as they watched the chase.

The spokesman said the goat incident did not cause major flight delays, despite claims from some passengers that there were 'longer-than-expected' delays.



"There were no disruptions to services and the goat remained mostly on a regional tarmac towards the back of the terminal," the spokesman said. It's believed the goat was bound for export aboard an aircraft headed to either Malaysia or Singapore.
