Who are the enemies of the goat?

well i am doing a report in the subject and it depends on area. for such goats as angora goats, who live in a very dry climate often have enemies including: mountain lions, trappers, ACTUAL LIONS! Other goats such as Mountain goats (which are actually classified as "goat-antelopes" have colder enemies such as mountain lions and in this case other goats. so yea In the wilderness, immature, baby wild goats are prey for everything predatory- wolverines, bobcats, cougars (aka catamounts, Florida panthers, mountain lions, etc) eagles, bears, wolves, and coyotes. Of course, people. Mature mountain goats are hard to kill- a determined lion or bear can take one, but they are smart and tough, fast, intrepid and hard to catch. A mountain goat can butt a panther right off a cliff. The most common enemy of the domestic goat is the feral farm dog- they run in packs at night and kill neighbors' stock when they can, and go home in the morning and act civilized. They run deer, too. Farm families should not let their dogs run free at night. Otherwise, domestic goats are prey for all the above. In New Hampshire, during hunting season I have seen farmers paint "GOAT" on the sides of their goats with bright safety orange paint. Some even paint their cows.
