Why were the two goats fighting?

Goats fight primarily to establish dominance or compete for resources such as food and mates.

  • Establishing Dominance: Goats, especially males (bucks), will often engage in head-butting and other aggressive displays to determine their place in the social hierarchy. This is more common during mating season.
  • Competition for Resources: Goats may also fight over access to food, water, shelter, or preferred resting spots.

These behaviors are natural and help maintain order within a goat herd.
