It looks like I missed #WorldGoatDay yesterday.
I heard it's #WorldGoatDay and I think picking up The Old Goat and the Alien by @vicorva would be an excellent way to celebrate. A delightful book, highly recommend!!

How do you weigh a mountain goat? Very carefullyโฆ and with a whole lot of goat cooperation! ๐ Watch as our mountain goat herd steps up to the scale for their weigh-ins, which is an important part of keeping them healthy and strong.
photo of the pregnant nanny goat bronze statue in side profile with its label on display at museum โGoats were among the earliest domesticated animals and figured prominently in Greek art and mythology since at least the 8th century BC. This example with its powerful stance, curly beard, and horns is not a ram but an expecting doe with swollen flanks. The subject is rare and its meaning unclear. Possibly she was part of a group dedication to a goddess. The sunken areas at the tail and hips and her open mouth, indicating heavy breathing, are signs that she is ready to give birth.โ

Happy #WorldGoatDay! ๐ Since April, our Nigerian dwarf goat kids have been living alongside the adults, and theyโve truly grown into one happy herd. Itโs still a whole lot of cuteness, headbutts, and playful chaos, only now with the kids fully part of the group.
Oh Pete, I almost forgot! Happy #WorldGoatDay to you!
