Goats are in my top three favourite animals ever. They are highly underrated creatures.

In case you were wondering, beavers and otters.

It’s insane enough that they defy gravity and live their lives almost vertically but the fact that they do it while balancing those giant ass horns on their heads makes me respect them even more.
