BIGGS, CA (MPG) - CAL FIRE Butte County firefighters rescued a baby goat last week afternoon after it became trapped inside a culvert in Biggs.

Firefighters set up air monitoring equipment before entering the confined space. Personnel then used a ladder to reach the goat and bring it to the surface.

The animal was not injured. 

After the rescue, responders named the goat “Lucky.”
