It is a steel rod shot by a cap-bolt gun into the head through to the spinal cord of a bovine in order to kill it as quickly, painlessly and efficiently as possible in the process of slaughtering cattle. A cap-bolt gun is also used to kill hogs, lambs, sheep, goats and other livestock (except poultry) that are slaughtered for their meat.

Yes unless it is done quickly and humanely, or the goat has already been stunned by a captive bolt or firearm.
Do you need a firearms license for a captive bolt pistol?
In the US, the general answer would be no. A captive bolt gun (commonly called a stunner or humane killer) cannot fire a projectile, and as such, fails to meet the definition of a firearm. (bolt may be driven by a powder charge, but being captive can only move a short distance) In a like manner, powder actuated tools, such as a Hilti Gun or Ramset, used to drive fasteners through wood, metal, etc into concrete are designed to prevent a projectile being fired. They may be regulated in other ways (OSHA has specific requirements for these) I am unable to comment on laws in other nations such as the UK, Canada, or Australia.
