here are some Bad Goat photos, I guess they will come through.

in second photo, you will see a fainting goat actually running away from the dog, this is just a moment before his hind legs would lock up, and he would  have to run like a wheelbarrow, only on the front legs.

If someone tells you that fainting goats can't jump, here is your evidence.

I had to practically WRAP those 2 old vehicles up with wire to keep the goats off them.

one thing I found out, goats won't go where their feet feel trapped... so I ROLLED up wire, the 2x4" sort, into a sort of jelly roll, and put it in strategic places. But it was a real pain .

We had a little pygmy goat kid that would get a running start and run 5' up the slightly slanting trunk of a Golden Delicious tree where she would stand on a horizontal branch and eat leaves that even the tallest of the dairy goats couldn't reach.  Donna
