There’s a new cutie at the Franklin Zoo and it’s no other than a baby goat named Chewbacca!
Meet Chewbacca, the baby Nigerian Dwarf goat was born on Feb. 16, 2016 at the Franklin Park Zoo in Boston. The little baby was born to Lucky and Leia last Tuesday.
Although she was born at only 4 pounds, the determined baby goat was able to stand all by herself and started nursing to her mom. John Lineman, who is also the zoo’s CEO stated that they were thrilled with the new birth.
