After two weeks of wandering around Massachusetts and Connecticut, Goose, the escaped water monitor lizard, has been captured, the Webster Police Department announced. Following his capture, Goose will be relocated to a nonprofit animal sanctuary.

The five-foot-long water monitor lizard that escaped from his home in Webster two weeks ago has been found. Webster Police say Goose has been captured, although they did not immediately provide details on where or how.

The lizard was spotted near Little Pond in Thompson late last month, confirming suspicions that Goose had crossed state lines. At the time, officials urged residents to avoid approaching the reptile and contact police if they came across it.
