Bloomington’s Miller Park Zoo welcomes a pair of newborns and they are among the rarest goat breeds in the world.

Simon and River are part of a rare breed called the San Clemente Goat and they are two of only 600 across the world.

Mom, Bella, gave birth March 20th at the Miller Park Zoo. When goats are little they are known as ‘kids.”

According to zoo officials, the goats are native to San Clemente Island, located off the California coast. They are listed as a critically endangered heritage breed.

Their dad, Ferb, is from the rarest bloodline found in San Clemente Island Goats and was brought to the Twin Cities all the way from a Texas ranch to breed.
