Miracle of the lamb

FEAR not, Ralph the lamb is alive and well.
The little four-week-old must be fed by a bottle to survive, but according to talkback radio station 3AW, he was found on Friday 2 September.
Ralph was allegedly found by road workers on Friday morning, several kilometres from his home.
Detectives were told a man entered the Mornington Tyabb Road animal park, The Big Goose, on Sunday 21 August between 1am and 3am.
It is believed the man broke into one of the sheds on the property and made off with Ralph, the baby lamb and nothing else.
A 21-year-old man from Moorooduc was tracked down and arrested and has been charged with theft, handling stolen goods and animal cruelty.
A 25-year-old woman from Cranbourne and a 21-year-old man from Tyabb were also arrested and have been released pending further inquiries.
