A baby goat taken from his mother has finally been reunited with her. No kidding.

Phoenix's CBS 5 reported that a baby goat, named GusGus, was found wandering the streets of Phoenix after he was stolen from the Great American Petting Zoo. GusGus had accumulated a legion of fans after the story of the little vagabond spread across the web.

The little white goat is 3 weeks old and weighs less than 5 pounds. A handler from the zoo suspected someone removed GusGus from his pen and carried him away in a jacket or bag. Upon being found and dropped at a PetSmart, GusGus was immediately placed back with his mom, Custard, with whom he is continuing to develop the important kid-mother bond.
