There is a surprising, and little known, history connecting goats and the US Navy. But, then again, goats themselves have a surprising history.

I really enjoyed the Dynamo video!! Thank you for partnering with them!
We have an fun and interesting goat related history around yule-tide in Scandinavia. Before the emergence of Santa Klaus, we had the yule ram, Julbocken in swedish. The yule ram would come knocking on your door on christmas eve and hand out presents and also play a little trick on the hosts. He was quite mischievous and a little scary but allround good natured. The history of the yule ram is quite unclear but goats were much more common in scandinavia only 150 years ago than they are today.
Goat cheese is pretty good. Go Army, beat Navy.
🙂Those eyes of yours look full of mischief. They are probable making your wife happy at home enough. My mother once explained to me why her parents decided not to raise goats during their mixed farming. That was all it took for me to decide against raising goats too after a calf on my grandparents farm once tried to get milk from my hand while I was little.
This didn't need a chatbot. Very disappointing
How is the scapegoat universal? Its purely judaistic in origin.
Thanks. 👊🏼✌🏻
Great stuff – though your clip from 5:37 to 6:04 does show sheep… Well, one goat, mostly sheep. The goat is the taller one with small, backwards-pointing horns and an upright tail. There is a ram or wether at the very beginning of the clip with characteristic sideways-pointing sheep horns. All the others are polled (hornless), which is unusual in goats, but common in many sheep breeds, either in all individuals or just in the females. Although these sheep don't clearly show their characteristic downwards tails, long tail hair can be seen in a few places peeping out from behind their legs, and they certainly don't have the upwards "flag" tails of goats. Contrast with the next clip from 6:04 on, showing all goats with upright tails and mostly with horns. Many tropical sheep have short fur instead of wool, and they can look very goatlike!
goats in the parable of the sheep and the goats are religious people who don't care for the poor, thirsty, strangers, imprisoned and naked. thats probably why they are associated with Satan
Some goats are attached only to their owners, apparently. I farm sat once and was asked to take them for a walk in the forest behind the barn. They would take off joyfully on their walk then turn and look at me following them and one would come back and butt me. I had to bring something to use as a shield. They didn't warm up to me even though I was there for two weeks. They loved their owner!
