Special needs baby goat walks with custom wheelchair after being born with deformities

A baby goat born with deformities has been fitted with a custom-made wheelchair in Kentucky.

Born on 31 March, the kid, named Tater, has congenital deformities affecting his hind end. His back legs are shortened and positioned abnormally, with the condition likely involving his hips, pelvis and lower spine.

Butterfly Valley Rescue & Sanctuary shared footage of the tiny Nigerian Dwarf goat walking with the help of a specially designed wheelchair.

“He may have started on a different path, but it’s already clear nothing is going to stop him,” the rescue service wrote in the caption.
