WARWICK, R.I. — There's a goat on the lam in Warwick.

The Goatscaping Company, of Plympton, Massachusetts, which uses the animals to do landscaping projects, realized the goat had gone missing on Tuesday morning, when it was doing a headcount at a job site in the city, according to a post on the Warwick Police Department's Facebook page.

"He basically wandered off the job," the post said. "Goatscaping is a trending fad that has recently replaced yoga and inline skating. Apparently, these goats are used to trim one's landscaping and they do it for money."

The goat in question disappeared in the Warwick Neck area. It goes by the names "Sammy and Frank," according to police.

The post included a description of the animal: "He is a small, brown Nigerian goat with one curly horn and generally described as 'funny looking.'"

Finally, the police department asks that if people "see a wandering goat in Warwick Neck, or heck anywhere in Warwick, give us a call at (401) 468-4200."

The post had been shared more than 400 times by Wednesday afternoon.

A landscaping company, Greenwise Landscape, Lighting & Stone posted this comment: "Now goats are taking my work? Sheesh!"
