Apparently she was looking for greener pastures and took off on a road trip to find them. But she wasn't counting on the firefighters who put their wrangling skills to the test and rescued her. Say hello to Lovely the Lama! Today, Regional Park Firefighters helped rescue Lovely the Lama, who got loose near Tilden Regional Park.
