pygmy goat
Small domestic caprine
A pygmy goat is a small breed of domestic goat, originally from West Africa, kept primarily as a pet or for hobby farming rather than commercial production.
Adults stand only about knee-high to a person: The kids loved feeding the pygmy goats at the petting zoo.
Despite their size, they're hardy and produce surprisingly rich milk.
