Goats! goats are awesome did you know
that around the world more people drink goat's milk than cows?

and they will bring up their food to chew on
again and again. these animals are called ruminants

Goats are amazing climbers and many of them can jump
as high as 5 feet off the ground! they are well-known escape artists, and
can learn to open gate latches and even jump off of other animals backs to
get over a fence geese
geese are beautiful birds and are closely related to swans. when
they get old enough to start having baby goslings
they will find a mate and stay with them for life. the mama goose
will pluck her own feathers out of her chest to line her nest with
then she will lay up to 12 eggs, which will hatch
about a month later adult geese are very, very protective of
their young and can be quite aggressive if they feel
a predator such as a fox or a raccoon wants to harm
their babies once a year, geese will molt
which means they lose a lot of fairy tales they are unable to fly for about six
weeks until their fairy tales grow back. until then
they stay close to ponds so they can jump in
at the first sign of danger
