A Texas police department at first thought their officer was being pranked when he responded to two separate calls about a goat and a peacock on the loose on April Fools’ Day, but it was no joke.

Body and dashcam footage released by the Irving Police Department shows Officer Turner attempting to lure a goat out from under a truck on Texas 183 with french fries. The goat bolted and gave chase into a nearby parking lot where Turner and several fellow officers were able to apprehend the animal by tackling it to the ground.

Less than half an hour later, Officer Turner was helping another person grab a peacock that was loose in the backyard of a home. The real challenge, however, was fitting the bird’s impressive plumage inside the patrol vehicle.

The police department said Turner “didn’t think twice about helping” the animals, and made sure to take selfies. Credit: Irving Police Department via Storyful
