August has been filled with daring goat adventures across the country, from the goats who ran away from a butcher in Brooklyn last week, to the hundreds that took over a neighborhood in Boise, Idaho. The Summer Of Goats continues today as a pair of goats were spotted along the N train tracks in Brooklyn.

The MTA says that the goats were seen on the above-ground N tracks near Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn earlier on Monday. NYPD and Animal Control were called to find them between the Fort Hamilton and New Utrecht stations before 11 a.m., which as you can see from the photo above, was a success.

The MTA noted that subway service was not affected by the wandering goats, so I guess we should all hope more wandering goats appear during rush hour commutes.

This is but the latest goat-related incident to hit the country, at least the fourth such runaway goat incident. More than 20 goats briefly escaped from a truck headed to a Brooklyn slaughterhouse last Tuesday when the driver pulled over for a nap. On August 8th, around 75 goats and sheep also destined for slaughter escaped from a New Jersey livestock auction and went grazing around Hackettstown.

And on August 3rd, more than 100 goats got free in an Idaho neighborhood, eating everything in sight. (These apparently were "professional" goats who were supposed to be clearing weeds in a nearby field.)

The lesson to takeaway here might be: if a goat is able to escape before it's supposed to be slaughtered, it should legally be free. Just like the old song goes, "runaway goat, never going back, please don't slaughter me on a one way track."

Update 12:20 p.m.: The goats are still just hanging around on the N train tracks.

Hopefully Joe Lhota will do the right thing this time.

Update 3:40 p.m.: The goats have now been removed from the area. The MTA writes: "Have we a 'goat' story to tell you today...! Two unexpected visitors were spotted grazing on the tracks of the Sea Beach line near Fort Hamilton Pkwy this morning. They were running in the direction of Coney Island—and who can blame 'em—but for everyone's safety, police have turned them over to Animal Care and Control."

"These guys have given it a real go," said NYCT President Andy Byford. "As long as they stay off the tracks we’d love it if they have a long happy life."
