News of a baby goat stranded on a Hawaiian cliff for several days led a group of rogue rescuers on a mission to save the frightened animal. 

Four days had passed after a Waianae resident first noticed a white baby goat trapped along a steep, skinny cliffside ledge.

First spotted on Monday, the concerned resident sought rescue teams to bring the baby goat to safety.

Despite efforts from the Honolulu Fire Department, Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources and Hawaiian Humane Society, the goat remained confined to the towering ledge.

As days continued to pass, hope for the animal's rescue from the treacherous cliffside began to fade.

That was until Ben Hansen, a Kailua resident, was alerted to the goat's predicament via social media.

'He saw the Hawaii News Now Instagram post and he's like, look, there's a goat. Looks like he's stuck,' Hansen's wife, Govinda Hansen, told the news outlet.

'So he showed it to me and I'm a sucker for baby animals, or animals in general. So I was like, we need to go get this goat,' she said.

Govinda and her husband weren't the only ones roped into the rescue mission.

Several Instagram users replied to the post, including two men who would eventually join the Hansen couple on their quest to save the animal.

'A swarm of people sent me the post,' said Caleb Morrison, 'like, "Go save this goat, Caleb!"
