A Pennsylvania farmer said he’s the victim of a bizarre crime involving goats and spray paint.

Someone used goats at their canvas in Beccaria Township, Clearfield County, over the weekend. The vandals used spray paint to draw obscenities on three goats.

The owners use the animals' wool to make cashmere. Since the paint will take several months to grow out, it could cost them hundreds of dollars.

“It’s really bad to think they would do that to innocent animals. I mean if they have a problem with me, to come to me. I mean, I have all of my vehicles up here and they didn’t touch anything,” said Evan Bellin, the goats’ owner. Bellin plans to move his other animals closer to his house to keep an eye on them.
