Anything cows can do goats do better. They also take marginal lands and scrub brush and turn it into meat, milk, leather and till the land. Goats are much more hardy than cattle they can live on less water and also are browsers in.addition to grazers they literally will east anything green including cactus chewing around the spines. There is a reason goat is the most consumed red meat on the planet they are magical in their efficiency. Goats are also the pet food of the muzzies and Latinos so the left will never EVER ban it’s consumption notice how they have never once talked about methane from goats which is also under a quarter of what a cow puts out on a lb per lb basis still the left doesn’t let a peep out about goat meat. Nubians are a great dual purpose breed I have feral Nubians on some land in Pecos County I inherited they do a good job of keeping the scrub down and I have never done anything to them other than not fence off the stock pond. Every year I shoot one or two for meat a quick 6.5mm to the boiler room and it’s cabrito for weeks. I would encourage anyone serious about having a on site meat source to look at Nubians or Boer goats.
I have family who are in the rodeo business who would argue with that statement.

Also the muzzies’ significant others in some cases, I expect.
I like hard goat and sheep cheeses, such as feta cheese. I agree with you that goats are more versatile and more efficient converters than cattle, of grass, and plants into meat for us to eat. Being smaller, they are easier to butcher than cattle. In days before we had refrigeration, you kill large cattle, you better have a large distribution list to sell that meat before it rots.
Or perhaps the cattle is butchered on market day for selling all the meat and organs.
Very interesting what you have to say about your wild goats. They are good for milk/cheese and good for meat. In Africa too they raise goats. In Kenya the men are so “addicted” to grilled goat meat that the high rate of gout is blamed on this.

Australia ships live camels and sheep to wealthy Arab nations, such as Saudi Arabia. To be butchered halal style and fresh as possible. Autrailan also ships them the less expensive frozen. Where I live I only see frozen Australian lamb.
There are some ethnic supermarkets here where I can buy goat meat anytime. The Caribbean people like goat. I have asked, as far as I can tell this goat meat comes from the Caribbean nations.

Goats don’t taste better.
