Goats

Goats are simple creatures, they are as simple as other animals. One specific animal that is often compared to a goat is a cow. Cows have many of the same traits. Both provide a constant supply of milk. Both also eat lots of grass. In some farming cultures the cow is sacred for its greatness  and also the goat is well thought of in many cultures. Most goats are kept for the benefit of their milk and their ability to keep a lawn and weeds in check. Cows also are kept for those same reasons. When comparing goats and cows, the largest difference is of course their size. While it may cost much more to keep a cow rather than a goat, the benefits of a cow can be more. While many people eat beef on more than one occasion per week, hardly any American families have even tasted goat meat. Goats can also be kept as pets. In a popular after school club called 4H, goats are often kept and judged at different meets and fairs. While cows are not often in those types of competitions. Goat cheese is rising in popularity and therefore raising of goats has become more popular as well. Goats overall are just as useful as cows and cheaper to maintain.
