fainting goats are not for the faint of heart...

I have seen these before...crazy goats. Guess they can't help it if their legs are spastic when they get scared, but still...how can that possibly be a good defense mechanism out in the wild. It would just make it that much easier for a predator to kill them.

They were just on Wildboyz the other week also.

That one brown and white goat they show after 3 seconds is very, very scary.

I agree about the futility of this as a defense mechanism...God definitely had his fun with these goats.

Yeah not much defense at all. We had two Great Pyrenes that watched over the herd.

Yeah, this is right up there with Sea Cucumbers puking their guts out, and that's without Tequila involved.

A bit of a tangent, but funny:

In my home town about 2 decades ago the mayor, thinking he is being clever and frugal, decides to follow city councel's advice and ties up a bunch of goats with leads around center city park in order to not pay 'professionals' to mow the grass every week. Well, about one week goes by and all of a sudden POW! the goats are missing! Noone can figure it out for a while, but then find goat bones in the trash cans of the local spanish-origin community right next to the park.....

MMM-MMM good!
