A woman from Florida claims an 'elusive goat rapist' is repeatedly assaulting her animals.

Sharon Cruz-Pecina has called on police to arrest the person she is convinced is trespassing on her property and having sex with her three pets.

She thinks the animals have been attacked since last summer.

Sharon, from Caryville, Florida, told local TV news station WJHG: 'He's been attacking them and raping them. I'm not jumping to conclusions.'

She bought the goats five years ago because her husband is lactose intolerant but is not affected by goat milk.

In April last year she was housing her goats about a mile away from her home when a man was spotted and identified lingering in the area.

The man was charged in 2014 with engaging in sexual activity with an animal, Sharon added.

'There is numerous people within the mile, two miles of this guy's home who've had problems of him attacking their goats,' she said to the news channel.

She also has photographic evidence the goats have been assaulted.

'I have had the officers out here a few times. I didn't call again because I don't think they are taking me seriously,' she explained.

She even tried to catch the suspect herself and goes to the length to have her animals tested and is waiting on DNA results.

Now she hopes the sheriff's department catches the suspect before he does more damage.

Sharon has been trying to catch him on video but has not captured any incriminating footage so far.

She wants him to be arrested, get the 'help he needs' and 'repent'.

An investigation by the Washington County Sheriff's Office is under way.

A spokesman told NewsChannel7 that officers had received a complaint from Sharon and was investigating an 'open case'.

'We are investigating this case as diligently and as thoroughly as we would any criminal investigation,' he said.

Despite attempts to change the law in the state in 2008 it is still not a major offence to have sex with an animal.

In 2011, lawmakers finally passed a bill making the offence a misdemeanor but it took them at least three tries to make it law.
