Those trying to protect the goat are planning to douse it in water with the idea that if it freezes, it will be much more difficult to burn To quote Robert Heinlein, "with enough dynamite & gasoline, anything will burn." (From A Stranger in a Strange Land.)

from wikipediaThe history of the Gävle Goat began in 1966. An advertising consultant, Stig Gavlén, came up with the idea of making a giant version of the traditional Swedish Yule Goat and placing it in the square.

Apparently he’s about to murder his very large family, possibly for their poor understanding of the apostrophe.
