A 2-month old
domestic goat (
Capra aegagrus hircus) kid in a field of
capeweed. Goats are one of the oldest domesticated species. For thousands of years, goats have been used for their
milk,
meat, hair, and skins over much of the world. Female goats are referred to as
does or
nannies, intact males as
bucks or
billies; their offspring are
kids.
