Sounds like goats are kinda ravenous, and that running goats is very stressful....

From the article:
"...sometimes, I tell people I'm kind of panicking. There's not a day I can't have feed lined up for these animals. I feel an immense amount of pressure to find work, because I have so many lives that are depending on feed from me." ..." #goats
