Well, mystery solved this week, reportedly: State wildlife cops say the odd beast is really just a male hunter decked out in a "goat suit," fleece and all (where does a person go about finding such a suit, anyway?). (None of your business why I'm askin').
Cops also confirm that the man is 100% human and not at all (or in any part) goat -- not even in a 1/32 Elizabeth Warren hokey ancestry claim sort of way.
So as for his story, this non-Giles Goat-Boy in Utah reportedly told cops he was just "testing out" the goat suit because he wanted to "prepare for an archery hunt of mountain goats next year." Course, that goes nowhere towards explaining why he felt compelled to root around within a pack of wild goats while sporting said suit.
And if you're planning to participate in a hunting season on a particular animal, wouldn't disguising yourself as the animal perhaps be the last thing you'd ever want to do?
But I maybe I'm being a little hard on the goat boy. As an anonymous "agitated" caller implored cops last week, "Leave goat man alone. He's done nothing wrong."
