How long have people kept goats?
Goats have been kept as herd animals for at least 9,000 years. They are bred for their meat, milk, and skins. In some countries goats are used to carry loads and to pull small carts. In many countries, goat numbers are very high and they damage wild plant life by overgrazing.
