Amazin Vision
Fun Fact 1: Goats Have Amazing Vision
Goats have rectangular pupils, which provide them with a wide field of vision—an incredible 320 to 340 degrees. This allows them to see much of their surroundings without having to move their heads, aiding them significantly in spotting predators.
Good Climber
Fun Fact 2: Goats are Natural Climbers
Goats are exceptionally skilled climbers. They can scale steep cliffs and even trees! This unique ability helps them access food in rugged and rocky terrains where other animals might struggle. The Moroccan climbing goats, known for scaling argan trees to reach their fruits, are a particularly famous example.
Great Memory
Fun Fact 3: Goats Have a Great Memory
Studies have shown that goats are capable of remembering complex tasks and can perform them even after a lengthy period. They can remember the faces of other goats and humans for years, showcasing their impressive cognitive abilities. This intelligence also makes them quite curious and playful animals.

Next-level Goat
“Being a goat is living life on the edge—literally and figuratively. They embody resilience, agility, and curiosity, climbing to heights others only dream of and facing every challenge with grace and determination. Truly, being a goat is reaching the next level of life’s adventure.”
Why People Love Goats
I love goats because they are interesting little animals. By looking at the horns of the goat above, I can estimate that it’s 3-5 years. Like humans, goat beards can also be used to tell how old a goat is. Sometimes you can be confused if a goat is fat or pregnant.

Goat Climbing Dam
The rock used to build the dam contains essential minerals, such as calcium, necessary for animals’ strength and health.
These minerals, dissolved in water, are crucial for bone growth, and proper functioning of the nervous system and muscles.
Without sufficient minerals, animals experience impaired movement and coordination.
Ibex mothers and their kids share a strong bond, with kids following their mothers to reach the mineral-rich areas of the dam.
Upon reaching the dam, Ibex obtain vital salts that are used in their bodies for nerve and muscle function, transported efficiently by water.
