Jittery Goats That Faint
When THEY'RE Frightened

However. Professor jay l.. Lush,
Of Iowa state College in Summarizing
these studies and his own observations
for the Journal Of Heredity reported
at least one instance of the same
species of goat having been found IN
Egypt in 1929.
The writer states that "a sudden
surprise or a moderately loud noise
causes a physical riEidity. Sometimes
the animal remains standing as though
transfixed. but more often he falls TO
the ground. Then in few seconds
he relaxcs and arises, seemingly none
the worse for the fright After this
happens no degree OF noise or excite
ment has further effect upon the
animal for the next 20 or 80 minutes"
