You have goat to be kidding me

When I first arrived at the Village, I had no idea I would be seeing so many cows, goats and stray dogs roaming wild. The cows and goats pay no attention to boundaries — they feel right at home in the Village and go where they please. They don’t watch out for traffic either! That’s why when traveling by car in the area, you’ll often have to stop for them to cross the road and even trail behind them as they slowly travel on it.

Goats!

Herds come in waves, grazing right through the Village and not leaving much grass behind. Oddly enough, the cows are awfully quiet in their pursuit of consuming as much grass as possible. 

The SOS kids and staff don’t give them a second thought, but at the same time, no one seems to go near them. Both sides seem to have achieved a perfect co-existence and I decided to follow their lead.
