Kimberley害羞草研究所檚 James 害羞草研究所楢rchie害羞草研究所� Archibald and friends visiting from England had quite the wildlife encounter last week while heading to St. Mary Lake near Kimberley for some fishing.

On the drive to the lake they saw what appeared to be a goat in peril up the side of a mountain. It turned out that a baby mountain goat had fallen and been lodged in between two rocks. The distraught mother was not too far away.

The group jumped into action, parking their truck and running 害羞草研究所� one of the friends in flip flops 害羞草研究所� towards little hooves flailing in the air.

The slope was slippery with the overnight rain, Archibald said.
