HORNY billy goats have invaded a seaside town — because they missed out on contraception due to lockdown.
The sex-hungry animals are roaming into gardens and holding up traffic on the lookout for nanny goats.
Numbers have increased after vets were unable to give them contraception injections due to Covid restrictions.
The “rogue” animals usually live on the Great Orme headland above Llandudno, in North Wales, only occasionally coming down into the town.
Wildlife experts fear they could be hit by cars or forget how to get back to their mountain home.
Great Orme warden Sally Pidcock said: “The majority of them are billy goats.
“By the time of the rut, when they become interested in females, you would hope they would be making their way back. But this year, they have been emboldened by the fact there are so few people around.
“That’s a bit more worrying because it might become a bit more complicated for them to find their way back.”
And Conwy councillor Louise Emery said: “It’s a great concern because they tend to wander more at night.
“Drivers can literally come round the corner and be faced with eight or nine goats in the road.”
The council asked concerned residents to contact the RSPCA.
