LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Three llamas in Louisville broke free from a fenced-in area and were on the run Friday morning, local television station WLKY reported.

One of the escapees, Felicity, was apprehended behind Scott Thompson's house.

"Police were great," he said. "They chased him in the yard and they were able to keep him there."

Felicity and the other two llamas were on the run all morning long.

"They had an all-nighter," said llama farmer Dale Hill.

Felicity somehow made her way into a nearby yard on Carlton Terrace.

"It was confused," said Garner Traher. "Didn't know where it was."

The owners arrived a short time later and put a harness on Felicity, then began walking the animal home while neighbors watched the rather unusual sight.

"It was so cool," said witness Norah Wulkopf, 6.

Felicity was returned to the llama farm, where she joined the other two llamas that also had been caught.

The owners said they believe the animals somehow escaped through an opening in a fence.

"We weren't sure until we got back, but we found some beer bottles over in the field close to the barn and one of the gates had been kind of pushed open," Hill said. "I don't think it was malicious, but I think probably some people decided to have a little party."

Fortunately, there were no injuries and there was only some minor damage.

"Some trimmed shrubbery," Hill said.

The owners said they're just glad the llamas are safe and back behind the fences.

"It did make the morning a little more interesting," Thompson said.
