Consequently, they also have a high demand for food and water....

During the day, a goat's pupils change into almost rectangular, vertical slits. This protects the eyes from excessive sunlight. Thanks to their wide pupils, goats have a large field of vision ranging from 320-340 degrees, allowing them to spot predators like wolves early. Schleich figurines are wonderful toys for collecting and playing, due to their...
