A really chatty browser
In the wild, pygmy goats are what we call browsers—meaning they prefer leaves over grass. Domesticated goats, however, most often live on grass.
Pygmy goats do not shed their horns. It is said that their age can be determined by counting the rings on their horns.
The male pygmy goat produces a strong and pungent odor to attract females. Their scent glands are located on the top of their head.
The pygmy goats at Knuthenborg are very chatty and love visits from guests. However, it is important not to feed the goats.
