Goat

A goat (scientific name: Capra hircus) is a domesticated hoofed mammal closely related to sheep and antelope, known for its agility, curiosity, and ability to climb steep or rocky terrain. Goats are raised all over the world for their milk, meat, and fibers such as cashmere and mohair, and they are also sometimes kept as pets. They have rectangular pupils, strong digestive systems that allow them to eat a wide variety of plants, and many breeds have horns and distinctive beards. Baby goats are called kids and are especially playful and energetic, while adult goats are hardy animals that have been domesticated by humans for thousands of years.
