A baby goat that was stuck alone on a cliff for days in Hawaii was rescued by a group of good Samaritans.

The animal was first spotted by a Waianae resident last Monday (4 November) but emergency services could not rescue it because of the location.

Ben Hansen and Govinda Hansen were alerted to the goat via social media; they joined Travis Woo and Caleb Morrison for the operation.

The hikers navigated the cliffside, using an apple and a drone to distract the youngster in a 45-minute rescue.

The. goat was taken to Aloha Animal Sanctuary, Hawaii News Now reported.

Discarding decades of dynastic politics, Sri Lankans to vote for change in parliament poll
HAMBANTOTA, Sri Lanka (Reuters) -Sri Lanka votes to elect a new parliament this week in a snap general election called by its Marxist-leaning president who wants a fresh mandate in the legislature to drive economic reforms in the debt-ridden island nation. Anura Kumara Dissanayake was elected president of the South Asian country in September but his National People's Power (NPP) coalition had just three of 225 seats in parliament, prompting him to dissolve the legislature and seek a fresh mandate there for his policies. Dissanayake, an outsider of the family parties that have dominated Sri Lankan politics for decades, swept to power promising change as the country emerges from a crushing financial crisis.
