Pete EAnother question about Wild Goats.....

How do these British Wild Goats compare to the ones you guys hunt in the States?

GeorgeSHi Pete,
Most of the feral goats hunted here are Catalina or Angora goats. Horn conformation is somewhat similar, but pelage is radically different from the goats in your photos.
Also, they are generally found in Texas, and most of Texas is flat or slightly hilly. In Hawaii, they run around the mountainsides, and are considered very challenging.
If hunted, they do get wary, with the billies staying in the middle of the flock.
