Mountain Goat
The wild mountain goat, as its name implies, is found in the
mountains of Europe, Central Asia, and North Africa. Other species
of goats can be found in the mountain areas of North America.
They can live as high as 13,000 feet. A mountain goat can jump in
the air 3 to 4 feet and has no difficulty jumping down a cliffside.
The goats will descend to the grassy slopes to eat, but then return
to the high rocky areas at night for protection. Born to climb,
a young goat is raised under the watchful eye of its mother,
and learns the ways of its species by imitating older goats and
by playing with other young goats.
