Some deer have horns while other do not, primarily because of gender. A deer's gender may influence the fact that it has horns or not, because most male deer fight.

Do all ruminants have horns?

Not all ruminants have horns. While many species, such as cattle and sheep, possess horns, others, like deer, typically have antlers instead, which are shed and regrown annually.

What are goats related to?

Goats are related to sheep for obvious reasons such as hoofs and horns, tails and fur (wool) but some think they are related to deer (more than they are to sheep) because deer have the same tail and they grow horns and they also have hooves while sheep have wool and deer have fur but goats don't have wool they have fur. Goats could also be related to horses through the hooves gene but that would be a short scientific reason why. We all originate from something!
