- This is Ruth, a Nigerian dwarf goat kid.
Her friend Sonia is a mini Nubian goat kid.
They live at the Oregon Zoo's family farm
with the rest of the herd,
and sometimes they meet the other animals.
- Come here!
Come faster!
(laughter)
Yeah.
- Today we're gonna see the mountain goats!
We have two young mountain goat kids here at the zoo,
Finnegan and Piper,
and they were born just a couple weeks apart.
Of all the that animals we have met,
these mountain goats are the closest to
Ruth and Sonia,
so that could mean they are really interested,
or they may not notice them at all.
(bright pop music)
- Do it, work on it together.
(laughter)
(sighs)
So goofy.
On our way up to Cascade Crest
we're gonna take the Great Northwest trail.
There's little trails for them to wander through,
and definitely lots of plant life
for them to nibble on on the way.
(mellow pop music)
- This'll be really exciting for
Finnegan and Piper,
because they don't get
to see a lot of other animals.
So I'm really excited to take the girls up
and introduce them!
(bright Latin music)
(laughter)
(music drowns out speech)
Oh my gosh.
Look at these other ones watching us!
So cute.
(bright Latin music)
Yeah, now we can see them better over here.
Aw.
Look!
(bright Latin music)
(music drowns out speech)
- So Piper made it all the way up
to the top of her exhibit and I don't know,
Ruth might've been a little jealous,
because then she went around
and climbed up a little rock sculpture
and kept tryin' to find ways
how she could get up to the top of that.
(music drowns out speech)
Oh really?
Ah, this was a really great encounter,
because our goats got to take a nice long walk up,
and eat some plants
and share a snack with the mountain goats up there.
And then those guys had a treat as well
getting to see an animal
that they've never encountered.
(bright Latin music)
- Oh my goodness look how tiny the feet.
(bright Latin music)
(music drowns out speech)
Oh!
Look at this
tiny goat!
- Look at you guys!
