From “Three Billy Goats Gruff” to The Men Who Stare at Goats, this inimitable ruminant has long played a role in our literature and popular culture. And yet, our relationship with the “poor man’s cow” is oddly ambivalent. In the beautifully illustrated Goat, Joy Hinson explores the reason behind this unease while presenting readers with the animal’s fascinating natural history and its effect on myth, medicine, and culture. Hinson traces the history of goats from their evolution millions of years ago through their domestication and role in the modern world. She delves into our interaction with endangered wild goat species and the familiar farmyard goat, and she reveals the harm done by humans in indiscriminately importing tamed goats, leading to huge feral populations in Australia and on the Galapagos Islands. Hinson also considers the place of goat products in culinary and medical traditions, from the pouring of goat urine into the ear as a cure for neck pain to the belief that a goat’s bezoar stone can be used as an antidote for poison. From Goat Festivals in the United States to the Christmas Goat in Sweden, Goat takes readers on an exciting ride through this frequently neglected animal’s history, life, and role in today’s world.

It is no secret that goats are highly intelligent. They are also curious, gentle, independent, very social, and full of character. They hate to get wet and will avoid puddles.

I designed Goat Notes to keep track of my small backyard herd of goats. Finding that I tended to keep notes in various notebooks and margins of books all over the place I needed to have one central location to put everything, and so "Goat Notes" was born. I tinkered with the format and information until I felt that it was just right for the backyard or pet goat owner (me and others like me). In this book you will find references helping you get to know your goats and information regarding their care. You will also find record keeping pages. Here at Honaker Farm we raise dwarf breed goats - Pygmies, Nigerian dwarf and crosses of the two. If the reference applies only to dwarf breeds then that will be noted for you. Most medicines that we give are based on weight, so knowing the weight of your goat is very important to providing care for them
