PORT ANGELES, Wash. (AP) — Olympic National Park rangers are patrolling trails where a Port Angeles man was gored to death by a mountain goat.

Rangers are looking for any other aggressive goats and talking with hikers. Superintendent Karen Gustin says they want to make sure there are no other goat attacks.

The goat that killed 63-year-old Robert Boardman on Saturday was killed by rangers. A necropsy was conducted Sunday on the 300-pound animal. The pathologist’s report is expected in about a week.
