goats can be kept successfully in all climates <the question is not where CAN they live, it is where do they THRIVE. Goats do best in arid climates, because there is less parasitic activity. however some breeds are better suited for colder climates, some for warmer, it really depends on the breed, but they are very adaptable animals.>

What is a goats natural habitat?

Hard to answer. Humans have removed goats from their origins and put them into places they weren't from originally. The simplest answer is anywhere there is adequate browse and water. Somewhere where there are few natural predators, and places for them to hide from the ones that are there. There are only 2 places, that I am aware of, that are origins for DAIRY goats. The Swiss Alps, and the Sahara Desert. I don't know the origins of the meat goats or the pygmies.
