Goats are highly intelligent, sociable, and curious animals that have played a significant role in human lives for a long time. They are quick learners and, being herd animals, they enjoy the company of other goats. Despite their friendly nature, they can also be very shy and cautious, and can react strongly to noises and unfamiliar movements. Unfortunately, goats are often farmed for their meat, milk, mohair, and cashmere, leading to these intelligent animals suffering from neglect and serious welfare issues.
Since goats are resilient animals that thrive in harsh environmental conditions, there is a misconception that they require minimal care, leading to neglect and welfare issues.
