Goat Thing of the Day: St. Louis Zoo and Urban Goats

Alert NGIP reader Kerry from Alaska snapped some pics at the St. Louis Zoo where the goats love to be brushed.

Because if you don't brush them, Oreo Cookie (not his real name, but it should be) here starts climbing the walls.

(Thanks, Kerry!)

More and more cities across the U.S. are fighting City Hall to declare goats as acceptable pets. And why not? As one City spokeswoman in Oregon said, "If you can have a 250-pound dog, why not a miniature goat?"
