CASPER, Wyo. (AP) – An anonymous donor has made a sculpture exhibit in Casper whole again after a thief made off with part of the installation.

The sculpture is called “Green & Greener Pastures” and is located in Pioneer Park in Casper. The sculpture features two grown sheep and two lambs.

Last year, a thief made off with one of the lambs in the sculpture. Whoever stole the lamb had to cut through bolts that were cemented into the ground.

The Casper Star-Tribune reports a replacement lamb recently turned up in a nativity scene in Pioneer Park. The lamb was installed alongside the rest of the “Green & Greener Pastures” sculpture on Monday.

Natrona County officials say they’re thankful for the donation.
