A Missing Nativity Scene on the Loose

In December 2019, police officers in Goddard, Kansas, responded to a highly unusual traffic hazard: a camel, a cow, and a donkey were spotted walking together unattended along a public highway. The local police department posted a photo on social media asking for help locating the owners, joking that they were "halfway toward a live Nativity scene". It turned out the trio had escaped from a nearby wildlife park where they were scheduled to perform in a holiday event. They had walked nearly 15 miles together before being safely apprehended by law enforcement.
