Man found guilty of bestiality after raping neighbour’s pregnant goat

 Feselani Mcube was found guilty

A man who raped his neighbour’s pregnant goat in his bed has been found guilty of bestiality.

Feselani Mcube, 33, spent the night with the nanny goat after stealing her from his neighbour's pen.

The bricklayer claimed he molested her after she turned up at his home.

A senior animal welfare official said it was the worst cruelty case he had seen.

The goat’s horrified owner admitted he was shattered to see her in such a dreadful state after her vile ordeal in Winterveldt, South Africa.

“I felt I should have done something to protect her,” said Knowledge Khumalo.

The goat is recovering after receiving medical treatment from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

Disgusted Inspector Mishack Matlou confessed it was the “highest form of animal cruelty” he had seen.

“As the SPCA, we want to call on the judiciary to take tough action against cases of cruelty against animals,” he said.

The goat’s owner Mr Khumalo said he had heard the animal making “strange noises” around 8pm on August 9.

“I did not take it seriously,” he said. “I thought maybe it was about to give birth since it was pregnant.”

But she was missing the next morning when he went to check on her.

“I went around the community looking without any success,” he said.

“Later, when I returned home, I found the goat was back. However, it looked unwell.”

Mr Khumalo said that as he examined the animal a man approached and asked if he was the owner.

“He then told me that he had been at Mcube’s shack that morning and had found the goat in his bed,” said Mr Khumalo.

Locals swooped on the perverted neighbour and confronted him about the sickening sex attack.

“Initially he denied raping the goat, but later he confided that he raped her because he found her at his shack,” Mr Khumalo added.

Mcube was later arrested and held on a bestiality charge, said police Captain Samuel Sebola.

He will be sentenced later this month after he was found guilty of bestiality at Ga-Rankuwa magistrate’s court today.

SPCA Inspector Matlou said it was important for people to respect and protect animal rights.

“Animals have a right to life and they deserve our love,” he told Pretoria North Rekord.

“Maybe churches must start to preach about the love for animals.”
