- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ส.ค. 2024
- From a man who has spent more of his adult life in a sleeping bag than in his bed, he had to learn the best way to spend time in the backcountry. His journey brought goats into his life and he has never looked back.
Meet Marc Warnke. A hunter who specializes in the use of goats, the greatest backcountry animal on the planet. He has been in the industry for over 30 years and is known as the Goat Guy. He sells goats, goat gear, provides goat training, and even offers guided trips into the backcountry with his own personal goats.
Step into Marc's shoes as he gives you an inside look into what gives him the advantage when in the backcountry.
We sat down with Marc for a podcast that you can listen to here:

Things I was not expecting at 2:07 AM: realize how painfully goatless I am
Ikr, I had no idea goats were this useful, I always thought they were bred for milk and meat
Better watch out it also isn't hard to have too many goats
@@swamp-yankee Seems like theres no such thing as too many goats.
@@CriticalSurvival0 a herd of goats can grow exponentially.
@@swamp-yankee youd never run out of dried goat and you can sell extra goats right?
Better hide this, Boston Dynamics is gonna be pissed if the army realizes we don't need their robots...
The difference is that you can park a robot indefinitely without it needing to be fed and watered.
@@paullangford8179 Also they can get a shot or two and just be repaired instead of dying
@@paullangford8179 The goats refuel in the field from.loval resources, while robots do not, plus they are self replicating, and can be used to produce liquid rations for the troops.
Their power plant converts biomass to energy and over the course of their service life, they are largely self repairing.
@@yagami1134
I don't think the goat/big dog niche is active combat, but rather the trecks in between.
A robot would be more robust than a goat.
Damage to it would probably be more than could be fixed in the field or easily ignored.
Goats would be squishy by comparison, but way cheaper and a wrecked goat could become a hearty meal.
If you can't fix your expensive pack robot in the field, your gonna have to abandon it.
You can't cuddle up with a Boston Dynamics robot, though.
imagine you are lost in the middle of nowhere and then this guy show up with his goat gang
He'd save every one of us :')
Haha this happened with my Dad and I. We were hiking in the backcountry and stopped to catch our breath, and we heard this weird jingle coming towards us. It freaked us out because it was like nothing we had ever heard in the country before. Then one by one, five goats carrying packs came out of the trees and passed us with this guy right behind! It was definitely a motivator to keep going and one of my favorite memories while hiking.
And then he says: it is dangerous out there, take one.
Goat meat for everyone 🙄
"Take a look at my goods stranger"
*MY SISTER KEEPS GOATS* she watched this video and said "this is the perfect life for a goat, they would absolutely LOVE to do this. They love to follow you and the rougher the terrain the better."
I'm sold, is your sister married? and how many goats are we talking about? 😂
Really?
This guy is breeding mini-trucks for the backcountry. Genius!
What about Rams?
@@MR-nl8xr 😂😂😂
@@MR-nl8xr as a kid on the ranch I’ve had goats and a de-horned ram and we learned real quick ! Don’t turn your back on Tommy(Ram) he’d butt you and I’d seen him take out many of our quests that visited. I can see were goats would be excellent our kids (Baby goats) literally ate everything and would be on top of our cars,trucks,etc.!! This gentleman is a Genius!!
@@scotmetcalf2745 Thanks for that....saw a movie where a guy was killed by a goat, I now think it was a Ram. Any idea the breed of these goats here?
Seriously! This guy and his goats are badass
“And she just couldn’t handle carrying the pack”... “So now we’re divorced and I’ve been with the goats for some time now”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
LMFAO!
You got me at: “when scared goats run towards you the horse runs away.”
Depends on how you train a horse
more of a funny comment than an actual fact :}
think war horses for example
My hunting dog does the same. He came zoooooooming in at my feet with yotes on his ass 😂 I shouldered my shot and they bolted
This man is what you would call, a practical genius.
So true! I raised goats for 11 years and would hike with them - if a strange dog or person showed up they'd just bunch up with me and wait for me to scare it off. They're also smart and can open gate latches with their lips. Fascinating and very social animals!
I just got 2 little goats from the goat guy. Out hiking the other day, they started acting wierd and staying right up against me. Couple minutes later, I see a dark colored cougar crouched under a tree only 30yds away. He ran before i could draw. Those goats told me something was there! I had no clue. Yesterday my little guy broke his ankle knuckle. Now in a cast. I'm sick. Just thought i would tell you all that lol
@@jeffallen62 Hope he heals up well - they are tough animals. Thanks for your story! Around here (central NC) we don't have cougars; feral dogs are the worst threat but some of them are scary. My neighbor owned a large horse farm and had dogs kill one of his colts. Happily between a strong night paddock, e-fenced pasture and a wonderful Akbash guardian I never lost a goat!
@@stacylewis2055I swear the reason I had more miscarriages the first year I raised goats was me not having a guardian dog. They trust him to evaluate threats, and he stays between them and scary things. It is so worth having a guardian dog...
The American mountain man has finally caught up to the Afghan mountain man. Lol.
funny, how regressing is sometimes the answer. We are always looking to technology and new shit, but slowing down and sticking with tried and true ways to live life seems to always be the answer.
@@cwr8618 I don't know, drones popping in and leaving you some stuff sounds pretty cool.
@@midgetman4206 hey i never said tech wasn't cool my man, just not the end all be all and we need to slow the f down. like often.
@@midgetman4206 what if an Amazon drone delivered you a goat?
@@midgetman4206 have you ever looked a goat in the eye? I recommend it to any who havent
1:24 I am not a religious person one bit, but the respect you showed this animal is incredible. Earned my sub
Made me bawl
That's what Muslims do 🙏
He also learned a lot from Afghanistan
Yes, that was really nice. I'm a bit tired of seeing hunters just cheer with joy and go "look at that monster buck", but don't take the time to show respect and thank the animal.
@@uniuni8855 All people did it at some point. It's civilized people who forgot it.
@@Aethuviel we muslims call someone who doesn't say a prayer or thank the Creator for the hunt/ meal a savage, it's actually uncivilized to start cutting/eating without showing respect to the gift at your hands
I had to pause this video as soon as you spoke that vital piece of life's advice: "earn time, not money". You put into few words what I've been trying to do all my life. My sons have the same philosophy; oddly my daughter doesn't and works 60 or more hours a week. My sons and I want to work to earn enough so we can have time to do what we want. I've said it many times, "I don't live to work, I work to live." Living below my means has given me ample opportunity to spend time doing things I love: hiking, boating, fishing, camping, gardening.
We have our own herd of goats. I've always wanted to try them out as pack animals. While I knew goat's milk was good for humans, I didn't know it was that good.
Thanks for the wonderful images. You travel in beautiful country.
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate the fact that you prayed over your animal. Most humans have completely lost all respect for animals. Call me what you will but I believe in that respect and I teach it to my son.
You're a good man, thank you.
Bears don't pray over salmon
I don't share this mans religion but greatly appreciate the prayer be included. Respect and gratitude for the animals we harvest is very important and something i am trying to teach my sons. Blessings in abundance but is easy to take for granted.
@@MrLleyo81 We are not bears..
Absolutely
man this video was way too short, could have watched this for an hour and the filming was beautiful. loved it !!!!
He has his own TH-cam channel.
@@MrKimberr TY I just subbed
Totally agree
Watched the video twice
Yeah I hope they bring him back on again!
Me: I don't need a goat. I live in an apartment and don't go into nature.
Also me: The goat is the ultimate back country companion.
💸💸💸🐐🐐🐐
5 am here, been watching mark for a year since we got out first goats. My husband first saw a goat on a neighbors farm and convinced me to add a few to our homestead. Since then i have found goats to be the perfect pet and super easy to train and care for. Mark has convinced me, i may end up only owning goats as they can provide milk and meat for free or super cheap hay at least in comparison to other feed. Pigs can be free if you have space and ability to rotate them through seasonally grown fields. Horses and cows require special feed and hay and many acres. Being such big animals, they eat a lot. When it comes to packing, not needing to carry hay on you for the trip is huge. Being smaller goats that are more agile with toes instead of hooves they can navigate through areas a horse can't.
In Afghanistan our B Co. guys used a lost donkey they found and adopted to carry ammunition and supplies up to their OP. We had a camel wander onto our combat outpost and were planning the same thing but a local guy who was the owner came and got him. We need to use more animals ! Really cool video and smart dude
Blame Gaius Marius. Its that bastards fault.
We did something similar until our CSM came out and saw we had animals (in a bombed out building) and made us get rid of them or disposed of them
What BN?
I am lucky enough to not see combat. We never trained using animals to help us. The only down side I can think of with a animal is loosing one. Once a enemy attacks the animal. Where I could have a Mechanic repair a vehicle. Is there even a vet MOS?
@@xPumaFangx there isn't a vet MOS but Medics do training with animals
Legit one of the most interesting thing I've seen in ages. 👍🏻
My grandfather from Kashmir,he always used goats when he went into the hills and mountains to trade, you're absolutely right about using the milk of this incredible animal..
I love that he doesn't have them on a line; they just follow him.
Yes! Shows that they have a relationship based on trust :)
If he crosses something they are unsure, they will probably still follow because they trust him and not because they get dragged over on a line.
Plus, it would probably be dangerous for them to be on a line. If one would fall, they would all go down together.
After a catastrophic knee injury many years ago, my knee has gotten progressively worse and now it just wont allow backpacking into the back country. I had considered pack animals but they have always seemed too expensive and aggravating until now. This video just made my day! Gotta get me some. Thank you so much.
So cool you're inspired! It's videos like these that need to go viral, right? Good Luck!
Cheers. Fun to see ya fired up.
What kind of knee injury? 25 and coming off a near full MCL tear and am worried how it will age. Thanks!
Gabriel E. Thompson, I severed my ACL and tore my MCL. Also tore my meniscus. I was though, fortunate enough to receive care from the worlds foremost knee surgeon at the time, a doctor Lewis Umverferth at Ohio State University. 30 years later Im very lucky to be hiking without having joint replacement.
i know im a total stranger but i totally agree you should get a pack goat and get back out there again! :)
As an owner of a few goats, I love seeing them being put to work. Goats also have a unique sense of humor too. Great stuff sir.
Could you give an example of that? Never thought of them as having a sense of humor.
Growing up I spent every summer on a 3500 acre ranch. Goats do have a sense of humor. They'll try to push you off the small rock your standing on, steal stuff from you, and have all sorts of shinnanigans up their sleeves; or rather their hooves. Goats are very loving and they like to be petted. They follow you around everywhere. Love goats.
@@e66ninja59 thanks! never had that idea of them, never been around them
@@goncalonunes985 our goats will act like their horns are stuck in something to get attention.
I have Alpine goats and I absolutely love their sense of humor they love to play all the time! And when they really get going and jumping off things it's so entertaining to watch especially when they're bouncing around and spinning at the same time and then hitting horns they are just awesome creatures!😊
0:14 The goat chewing makes it look like a hardass veteran chewing gum
Goats chew their food twice.
We’ve reached a level in life where pets aren’t based on energy->work. This man devolved enough to have a use for goats, and I’m jealous.
Eh, kind of a point of a dog is that he wants my attention and wants belly scritches
I agree. Reducing everything down to energy expenditure is a sad way to live.
How is it devolved in anyway? Goats are awesome, besides carrying luggage, you have a mobile meat station incase you cant hunt lol
Absolutely genius! Isn't it funny how if we just pay a small amount of attention to the world around us, God has literally provided everything for us.
👊
And man made what he provided to us into everything you live with now.
@LonerWolf Patriot literally can't disprove or prove god's existence it's what's called an unfalsifiable hypothesis
Thank the sky father
Well he didn't. Goats cost money.
We were hiking in the Sierra Nevadas when we were passed by a guy and his pack-llama. I thought *that* was genius. This is better.
Alpacas are a good compromise. Much More like dogs or goats. Also they get along with goats!!!
I don’t see how this is genius, literally people have been doing this for centuries.
@@fdd7002 Have people been doing this in modern times for recreational hiking? No? So, yeah, recognizing the applicability to modern hiking and hunting is genius.
@@sillyquiet what you mean no, horse back rider and people have been doing this for ever, for both work and for recreation. It’s almost literally the only reason why most people have horse now a days because a vast majority of horse are not use for work. Also people that need a caravan just to go hiking are people that just have way way too much stuff because it’s not pretty obvious you don’t need that much stuff to go hiking for weeks because people do it all the time.
Pack llama makes good sense; it can do pretty much everything a goat can do, and it can take a much bigger load, including its own food.
The goat serves like a double purpose. It can carry food and supplies and in case of emergency it can become food and supplies itself^^
Imagine being able to breed goats that can carry human as big as horses. Wow. Thats the GOAT animal
That’s what a donkey is.
@@guy8646 ok, but please consider the horse-sized goats would look at least 50000% cooler though
@@general8250 A horse sized goat would scare the f out of me. I love the goat attitude but it’d be scary scaled up.
You horse with two horns... No no
If you want a horse sized goat, why not use cattle.
Honestly this was the best april fools video on yt. Came in thinking this was totally a joke filmed in a serious manner and came away thinking goats are the GOAT. Subversion of expectation for sure
This is AWESOME! Our family used to spend 6-8 weeks in the High Sierras every summer, but due to a disability I haven't been able to for over a decade. These precious little four-legged helpers are exactly what I need. I'm almost 60 & have wanted a goat since I was in my 20's: We live in SoCal, but there are MANY pockets of unincorporated areas where ppl have chickens, sheep & goats, and a good friend had one growing up. Also, one of kids had to have only goats' milk bc of an allergy to cows' milk. Thanks for a GREAT video! (PS. Loved how he prayed over the elk)
I love my goats so, so much. At first they were just to clear poison oak, then came milk, then came cheesemaking. Life changing. I am so thrilled to come across Marc and his beautiful goats. We now have more plans for our herd.
Working animals are a huge blessing. We would never have made it this far as a species without the skills to tame animals.
I think his preference towards goats is more one of convenience than an actual "like" for them. He chooses to spend 1/2 a year, or more, in areas that are hard to keep a dog, therefore, to lighten his burden, he sought out a four-legged companion that was naturally built for that lifestyle. Dogs have other purposes, and being a pack animal is not one of them. Aside from that, much props to him for living the life he chooses to live, and not trying to adjust his life around his "job".
Dogs are very much, naturally pack animals. Just a different type of "pack". Lol! The goats are much more advantageous for his needs, for sure. If you spend any time around goats, it's impossible to not like them. They're hilariously funny to watch at times. Great animals!
@@ktimmer2 I think he means that dogs are pack animals and not herd animals heh
@@3nertia My bad attempt at humor. LOL! He meant pack animal, as in packing your gear like a mule. 👍
@@ktimmer2 No, I think that's my bad for misinterpreting in the first place! Apologies to both you and M G
Goats are also good eating in an emergency and you get milk as well.
I’m not gonna lie when I started watching this I thought it was an April Fool’s Day joke but I’ve always wanted to have some goats and wow, there is some really cool advantages to having goats.
That's exactly what I thought~ So glad I clicked on it!
Came to the comments to say the same thing.
AND.....THEY TASTE GOOD.
@@PP-uv1kw true, I’d feel a helluva lot better eating a goat in a survival situation than a dog or a horse 😆
@@operator1192 Trust me when I say, they are so personable that you would end up giving your life to save the goat. Fact.
I love the prayer he said after the kill. A thankful spirit is a beautiful thing.
I’m impressed how he gets them to cross streams. Goats don’t typically like water at all.
Was thinking the same.
It looks like he really is trusted enough that him leading through gives them a sign that its also safe for them
Is it true that goat don't drink water?
@@teddy130 they absolutely drink water. They, for lack of a better description “suck” up their water. To me it looks kinda funny when they drink.
Mine cross if there is something they want on the other side. Mainly food, but makes sense that if he is over there, they will follow
At this point, the best april fools joke is to make serious content on april fools
cause reality is already enough of a joke?
@@ImJBTPG yup
@@ImJBTPG agreed.
*Honk
come on bruh. you got me realy confused now.
please someone tell me if goat-packing is realy a thing. before i go outside and look like a fucking dumbass.
@@samskisamsonof of course it is.
when i first saw boston dynamic's robot, i thought to myself...the military needs this to haul their gear in afghanistan, but maybe they just need some military goats
Its almost like they are trying to replace God with machines....

@@6gunbeaufordiii514 "Even after the enemy spoken of above had fallen into ruin, the ninja would not talk about what they did, about having sneaked in and laid their plot. For this reason, people do not know that the enemy was ruined because of his achievements but believe that he went to ruin as a matter of course, as if the enemy had run out of luck.
As in the above case, competent ninja, even if they have accomplished the extraordinary, make no sound, leave no smell and get no fame or honour for their bravery. The results they have brought about look as natural as if they were being created by nature itself. Universally, in spring it is beautiful and trees and plants grow and flowers bloom. In summer it is hot and trees and plants grow luxuriantly. In autumn it is cool and trees and plants turn their colours and the leaves fall. In winter it is cold, snowy and frosty.

It’s been amazing to see all my influencers making content together. I subbed to Marc 5 years ago. I just watched a 3 hour interview with Shawn Ryan and Randle Carlson!!!! Life is good.
hate to tell you guys this but proto indo eurpoeans figured this out between 4500 BC to 2500 BC, that's why they became domesticated. but good on this guy brining back the lost art.
This guy transported two goats to us in our state two years ago from the Midwest. Great goats. Cool guy.
What did you name them?
Now the legends of Thor and his goats make sense.
Gnasher and Thrasher thank you for remembering them
thats a good point and agreed
Good point pagan brother! 💚🌱🌳
I appreciate how they still have their horns, good to protect themselves if they need it
You realise we dont usually cut goat horn ? You acting like this is special to goat to still have their horn.
Horns are used for social purposes not survival purposes. They don't fight predators, they flee.
Also, disbudding (removal of the horn bud via burning shortly after birth) is standard practice in dairy breeds
I got sober 19 years ago and understand what you did this gets me fired to do the same grow up with goats God bless and stay the course all my respect
👊
I wrestled a goat when I was 6 at my uncle’s farm. That rascal was wiley
An angry goat chased me up a tree at my grandparent's farm around the same age, haha. I remember my grandfather coming over, grabbing him by the horns and throwing him down and sitting on him so that I could come down, he was an ornery guy! (Well, they both were, haha)
I feel like out in the middle of no where the goat would talk to me and try to make deal with me for my soul.
They only do that to the weak willed. :)
@@davee5384 😂🤣
Wouldts thou like to live deliciously?😈
@@jonpaul3868 what does thou want
9 times out of 10 the only deal they'd care about is if you'll give them food
Anyone else feeling a lot of love for these amazing goats?
This video led me down the rabbit hole of PackGoats, and I'm so grateful for it
👊
field craft just went next level, as a man who doesnt eat beef and pork and getting into the field for the Canadian game. This is great
In an emergency, barbequed goat would be a luxury!
The prayer from 1:24-1:42 puts it all in focus.
God is who we should all live for.
@EpyonX What I wouldn't give to be 16 again.
Yeah what god, whose God are you talking about....Allah?
@EpyonX must be....or Shiva
He’s referring to our true and only god Sol Invictus.
Very informative but i gotta say the best part was the open prayer right after the takedown! Amen brother!!!
Ain’t nothin but respect for nature. This dude is awesome
Handy little guys and so much more controlled than a horse
Goat prices are gonna go nothing but up - invest now! 😂👍
Did you even watch the video? They're not befriended for capital gain.
Forget bitcoin and dogecoin, goats 🚀🚀🚀🚀 are going up to the moon
I wish you where my dad when I grew up. Your kids are lucky. That looks like an amazing life. You are a full human.
👊
If he was your dad you'd be out there with the goats so much you'll end up hating goats for the rest of your life lol trust me
After watching this video: indeed, goats are the GOAT companions
I miss true nature programs. That said, this is so much more than that. Prepper mindset using tools and animals as tools to achieve, recreate, survive.
Absolute great production and content 👌
Dislikes are dog owners.
I love his wisdom and life style.
I'm a dog owner and definitely disagree with him on the dog bit but I think his reasoning for his relationship with goats is great and makes sense for his mission and purpose. Dogs are a fantastic companion for a whole lot of people. I don't necessarily want to carry so much shit into the back country that I need 10 animals in tow. But I'm also probably doing shorter trips and bringing less shit.
@@cwr8618 I love dogs more than anything that includes human beings because human beings destroy our planet.
However, I still love his wisdom and totally agree with his idea on SURVIVAL channel.
Looking at his idea from SURVIVAL perspective, you will probably have to kill your dog and eat him while his pack goats can carry, like he says, how much food and drink for you and come back alive from back back back country.
Of course I need no shit walking my pup in the Central Park or back roads.
Well, at least I know that one of the dislikes just surfaced.
Ibtotaly agre with him, dogs are a waste of time, money and energy!
@@MolonLabe-1776 yea except this wasn't just a SURVIVAL piece. He was mainly talking about how he can take more on hiking/camping/hunting trips. Settle down. And no I didn't dislike this video, I actually liked it and went on to listen to the full podcast as I've been researching goats for several years.
I love how in every authentic bow hunter video, they ALWAYS have the same exhilaration after a perfect shot! That moment from before you make your shot to right after you guys release!
I want to feel that some day.
"Embrace the suck" It's been a while since I heard that term. I like it. There's a zen quality to it.
I'm just scared about the goats deciding to ram me near a cliff.
If you raise them properly or buy a trained/manered goat, that wont be an issue
Yeet
Wow, amazing to see he still has the time to give thanks to the ALMIGHTY.
Dogs will give you someone nobody in your life can other then God... They will love you unconditionally for their whole lives and work for you... Some people...
Goats are the greatest multipurpose animal that has lost its historical significance.
I remember reading an article when I was 16 about using goats for hunting pack animals! That was 35 years ago! I always wanted to get a string of them together!
Most certainly has made me rethink goat ownership. Brilliant thinking. Love this video.
Wow, great testimony. Thank U from Australia
A horse will run back to the truck. Horse~"Sayonara sucker!" 🤣
This is the type of guy who would come across Bigfoot if it existed.
What an amazing life. One lucky lad.
Thanks! Never seen him or any sign of him.
It does exist, broaden your horizons
Benny Garr I’m not saying he doesn’t exist at all, I’m just saying I’ve never seen him or any sign of him. I wish I have.
If this guy ever finds bigfoot , he'll probably have sasquach carrying his bags outta the woods for him too😂
john dowe too funny. 😂😂
i love how logical this guy, he definitely does a lot of thinking.
such a good man, i wish i had a father like you.
Hunters like this
my father was on a Himalayas expedition in the 80s and grew very attached to what he thought was a porter or companion goat, he said he slept with his head on the goat like a pillow - until they killed it for dinner :/
The fact that he respects his prey means a lot.
Why? The animal is dead. If I kill someones baby and pray after it died, does it make anything better? I don't think so.
This is how hunting should be, respect the land and the bounty it provides.
@@dieabsolutegluckskuche5174 yes, it does. It teaches you the value of life, the role of your prey to the environment, recognizing those makes you a responsible hunter.
@@dieabsolutegluckskuche5174 and it chills me how you used a baby as an example.
Amazing. So glad I took the time to watch
as another person of this world who overcame addiction by surrendering myself to it; I salute you, inspiring. been dying to get out in the bush for too long. its nice to see someone who has spent great deals of time living in a sleeping bag still being able to get out and do what you love. hope to be in your shoes one day.... maybe even own a goat or two ^^
Cheers brother, love your faults in words.
I've been a city "armchair survivalist" for over a decade, this is the coolest thing I've seen....congrats!!!!
Remeber preppers are crazy to think a pandemic with riots and looting would ever happen.
Imagine pulling a goat out of your edc in your pocket. This dude is the 🐐!
TH-cam please recommend this to more people thanks
This is genius. I have watch a lot of bushcraft. And videos of survival kits, etc. Never did any of them think about this genius😄
the production quality on this video is incredible
Badass video! Marc is a good dude.....anytime I have ever reached out to him he has always responded with kindness.
👊👊❤️
Brilliant, total respect from Australia
I don't know what it is but this video is pretty damn good. I am convinced goats are the best pack animal now
Love this! Badass video!! From a veterinary point of view, goats are SUPER HARDY. Horses are crazy expensive to keep, they also colic or start limping if you look at them funny LOL
that's amazing how they will just follow him like that. I live in Canmore Alberta in the Bow Valley and watching those mountain goats scale the rock faces in crazy. I know these arent mountain goats but these guys can really be brought anywhere and will be able to navigate the terrain. Really intriguing video here.
Man opening with that prayer and thankfulness was powerful.
Oh my God... This video has totally changed my mindset on pack horses. I love you Field Craft for this wonderful nugget of info.
Bro, you have read my mind!! I have wanted a goat for years, poor mans cow!! Awesome video!
That goats beard dragging in the grass when he was eating LOL
Just like mine... I should shave me again somewhen.
Another thing about horses, and I say this as someone who likes them, is that a horse will generally choose any other nearby horse over you. If you're in a group of horses and they decide to break left, you're going left unless you've got the muscle and familiarity to wrestle your mount's head in a different direction, and even then it's going to be a struggle to keep your horse from rejoining the larger herd until you get far enough away from them.
Lol the baby goats marching with him 🤣😄 so cute!
Now all i can think about is using a goat to carry my photography equipment
I used to have goats and there affection towards their human is comparable to dogs. They really see you as a pack member.
God bless you, your family and your goats!
Thank you Marc.
This is so awesome! I have a friend who keeps a pack goat/hiking companion and he loves it.
This is so interesting! I’d have thought goats would be stubborn like mules. They seem so docile which is great.
This was so compelling of a reason to keep at least 3-4 happy goats on the homestead
for some dope yearly hiking buddies and long haulers!
Wow this was so awesomely informative, can all the goat herders of the world get a big RESPECT DUDES.
