Nigerian dwarf goats can grow up to weigh 75 lbs. and are milking goats. The West African breed can be found all around the world, and according to the video above, they even make great pets.

Chewbacca is the second child to parents Leia and Lucky (we see where the name came from). She is expected to stay in the Franklin Farm section of the zoo with her family.
