    LOL!!!
    That's brilliant!!
    Seems a little cruel on them to have such reaction... what good is it if being hunted?
    Is it supposed to simulate death or something?
    bizarre...

    The idea is that if a wolf or whatever attacks the flock the fainting goat keels over and gets eaten while the more valuable animals can escape. Must be a bummer when they go into the career guidance counseler and find out what jobs are available. "and what sort of pension scheme do you have ?"

    BTW another use for goats http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judas_goat
