Wow! Thanks for sharing that! It is really something!
That tree won't be around long with them in it. I could
be wrong but I think it's a cedar.

We have a leaning cedar tree in the pen where we used to have dwarf goats. Yup, they'd climb.

Our Nubian kids could get on top of the hay feeders and shelves in the barnsides about 5' up. Friends took orphaned Alpines in the house for a while, and found 'em on top of the refridgerator. Only makes sense; many domestic goats probably originated from mountainy areas, or the sandy dunes of eastern places. Sue

One of my NDs is a jumper. She managed to jump a 5' sheer wall TWICE!!!

On climbing, I'd be concerned they would fall and get hurt.

That looks like a plague of locusts coming out of that tree! I wonder where that was filmed -- it looks like Africa. If you look at the ground, it's no wonder they are up in the tree -- there's no feed for them on the ground at all. Way over-grazed.
