Goats are happy, vocal, energetic, and lively. These goats wouldn’t make the ideal pet for a city household, but they are a popular addition to rural families. You will find them in any area they visit.
Bright-eyed newborns become rambunctious, dare-devilish children, and then, eventually, mature into intelligent, all-knowing, goats. These mammals are often seen riding on the backs of their farm buddies, sporting silly tufts on their chins, and intense betty eye colors.
