How to use it

Herdable animals fatten over time, so the longer they are alive, the more Food they will provide when your gatherers finally hunt them. They will fatten even faster at a Livestock Pen or Village.

History

Scientific Name: Capra aegagrus Approx. Size: 3 ft. to shoulder Diet: Grasses, tree branches, shrubbery The wild goat is one of the most common goat species. It lives a nomadic existence, often found in mountainous regions across Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Adaptively agile, the wild goat is adept at moving from outcropping to outcropping because of its subunguis, the inner layer of hoof material that allows for maximum shock absorption. The subunguis allows for the constant wearing away of the goat’s hoof, leaving it with a consistently sharp edge for gripping rocky surfaces. The wild goat lives in flocks of 500, with the exception of younger males, which are driven away from the group to live in solitary. This period, called a rut, lasts until the male is ready to mate and it returns to the flock. The typical life span for a wild goat is between 12 and 22 years.
