The call from the train operator came in just before 11 a.m. on Monday to the New York City subways command center, an alert unusual even for a system accustomed to morning commutes with delays: There was a breaking situation unfolding on the tracks. Two goats were on the lam. Were told they were munching grass, said Jon Weinstein, a spokesman for the M.T.A. They were tranquilized and captured just before 1 p.m., according to the M.T.A. Where the goats came from is unclear, though there are a number of slaughterhouses in the area where they were found. Other animals, like cows, have absconded from slaughterhouses in the area in the past. They do not have names as far as we know, Mr. Weinstein said.

They might by now. Jon Stewart, the comedian, and his wife, Tracey, picked up the goats in Brooklyn and transported them part of the way to Farm Sanctuarys shelter in Watkins Glen, N.Y., a spokeswoman said. There, they will receive medical examinations and the world-class, individualized care, Farm Sanctuarys spokeswoman, Meredith Turner-Smith, said in a statement. Both goats are male, and are of the Boer breed, which is commonly raised for its meat, Ms. Turner-Smith said. Mr. Stewart, the former host of The Daily Show, and his wife have been supporters of the shelter since 2015, when they opened Farm Sanctuarys fourth location at their farm in New Jersey.

It sounds like something he'd do.

It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."
