Besides dogs and sheep, they are the oldest domesticated animals. The male goat is called a buck. Both males and females have horns. Sometimes they are removed after birth so that the animals in the herd do not hurt each other. Goats are very skilled climbers, scaling the steepest mountains and sometimes climbing on trees. Goats do not need much to live. They can find a few stalks and leaves even in the driest areas. They eat grass, hay, fruits and herbs. Like sheep, goats are ruminants. Goats regurgitate their food a few hours after eating and chew it again thoroughly before it is finally digested in the stomach.
