Goats are an ecological disaster. The Middle Easr is, at least in part, the arid place that is is due to the goat.

“Goats Form Intense Connections with Humans, Too

It’s the first time a creature raised for food has evolved intense, meaningful connections with people”

The jokes just write themselves.

Many years ago, I took a summer session at the Tech and was introduced to cabrito.
Seating at El Tio’s was outdoors, with an open fire grilling the ribs.
When the cook determined the meat was done, two young kitchen helpers lifted the carcass off the fire and fired up a nearby band saw, slicing off big chucks for the patrons.
It was quite an experience...

I got head butted by a goat in the bohind one time going to interview a witness. Didn’t feel good. It came out of nowhere. Never saw it coming. I was wearing a jacket so it helped. The homeowner said it was her guard dog. I believed it...

We had a few and plan to get more. They’re very smart and sneaky too and each of them has it’s own personality. Not a replacement for dogs though. I don’t think a goat could ever be house trained. They’re unconscious about defecating.

In AZ, my children had a pet goat who ran and got in the car and rode with her head out the window when I drove them to school. Lol. Just like a dog. She always answered when called also.

Oh yea. Nothing like building a taco with cabrito with some pico de gallo and guacamole. Add a cold Pacifico and it is a little bit of heaven on earth!

Especially in the Middle East, where they are the sex partner of choice for millions of men.

Our city sends a flock of goats to the end of our street once a year to eat the dead grass on the empty lot. It’s not an easily mowable slope. They also take care of another steep slope on a nearby street.

Exactly.

Beau is planning on going into the goat meat business after he retires. They can clean up the hillsides (free feed!) and you only need to raise them from spring until late summer, then off they go!
