Why do goats faint when they get scared? 🐐 😀😍🧐
Why do these goats faint when startled? They really have no other choice. When startled or overly anxious, Tennessee goats experience a sudden muscle contraction and collapse right where they're standing, regardless of time or location. This fainting spell doesn't harm them, but they remain completely immobilized for about fifteen seconds. This is due to a rare genetic muscle disorder unique to this breed. In the wild, it deprives them of any chance of survival, making them the butt of ridicule on farms. #animals
