This goat has actually been born with a bone disfiguration. Its spine is naturally curved like that making it painful to walk on 4 legs so it tries to get along on two. They normall die very young or are put down.

[–]fall_ark 249 points250 points ago

Thank you. I was expecting a depressing explanation.

I can go to bed feeling all awful now. D:

[–]xaronax 228 points229 points ago

Don't worry, the hammer they use to put them down is nice and heavy. Almost no brains get on the other healthy goats.

Exactly.

[–]Koozey 2 points3 points ago

What happened?

[–]Standard_breaker -4 points-3 points ago

I like how Reddit upvotes the depressing truth even on r/funny.

It's like we feel the need to make everyone else feel as bad as the content made you feel. But wait, it's the truth behind the funny material, it's justified, right?..

[–]MaxIsAlwaysRight 12 points13 points ago

I have been waiting for a chance to use this.

Well, the truth should never be hidden... even if it makes people feel bad.

well this just got depressing fast.

[–]Dan_P326 3 points4 points ago

I was going to make a joke, but now i'd just feel bad

[–]PushThatFatKid 3 points4 points ago

We all feel bad.

Your joke is more important now than it's ever been.

If you don't make a joke, then the suffering goat wins.

[–]unholymackerel 25 points26 points ago

I hate when people put down disabled animals. We should try to help his self esteem.

[–]mphatik 38 points39 points ago

Survival of the fittest. Instead humans celebrate disability by choice.

[–]TitusAndroidicus 12 points13 points ago

Yeah, let's bring back eugenics.

[–]EffYourCouch 18 points19 points ago

That's mean but true.

[–]playingnice 20 points21 points ago

[–]madworld 5 points6 points ago

Maybe it's just me... but I would watch Stephen Hawking jump through a flaming ring.

[–]xaronax 1 point2 points ago

Boring. He would calculate the physics required perfectly.

[–]lostmygravitas 16 points17 points ago

We don't celebrate it...we just think disabled people are entitled to live as much as anyone else. Which they are.

[–]LostInTheWired 9 points10 points ago

I may be wrong, be he may be talking about how getting cochlear implants can be ostracized in the deaf community. It came up a lot in the AMA recently.

[–]lostmygravitas 4 points5 points ago

Aha. Well if that is true I find that terrible. Just goes to show you people can be assholes no matter what color, nationality, gender, or how much of their body works normally.

[–]voxoxo 1 point2 points ago

It was a joke though ... "putting down" -> berating

[–]Edinburgh7 0 points1 point ago

I don't really see how using advances in modern medicine and science to allow those who are disabled to live is celebrating disability.

[–]dont_press_ctrl-W 1 point2 points ago

You're missing the point of natural selection, it seems.

If someone survives to spread their genes, then they're fit enough. That's it. That's the definition. It doesn't matter if they do it by being strong, or intelligent, or cute, or by surviving on the kindness of others. They survived, they spread their genes; they're fit enough.

There are many theories for why humans have this kindness toward others, but the bottom line is that at some level it must have been beneficial at some point and in some context to be kind. It's not going against natural selection, it is natural selection at work.

[–]whowatawhat4 1 point2 points ago

And here I was all prepared to type out a joke...

[–]TheDroopy 0 points1 point ago

God damn it.

[–]flacker110 1 point2 points ago

when i seen it i figured it was somthing like that. i work in poultry and have seen chickens with their heads between their legs walking backwords for the same reason

[–]bstampl1 1 point2 points ago

Get down from there, legs. You are not arms. You don't even have shoulders.

[–]apcolleen 1 point2 points ago

My friend just had one she rescued die pretty much because of this. She had scoliosis and it was crushing her organs and she died at 3 months old. She could walk in a walker they built but they underestimated how much pressure her spine bend caused. she wasnt in pain though til the end when her rumen opened up. Poor little Elinore.

[–]thats-a-repost 1 point2 points ago

Lies he is practicing his ninja skills

and why the hell does it seem like google chromes spell checker keeps getting worse and worse telling me practicing is spelled wrong. And no such thing as a movie.

[–]greathornedowl 0 points1 point ago

My boyfriends response was: "It's mating season." I can't tell if he is kidding, or not.

[–]alftanner 24 points25 points ago

Haha that was exceptional camera stability for a "drunken goat" internet vid. Almost looks like they busted out a track and dolly to follow that goat guy

[–]kt00na 35 points36 points ago

I'm sure they just taped a GoPro to a chicken.

[–]n3wby 1 point2 points ago

[–]TheTruthBeSold 0 points1 point ago

:D I knew it was possible!

[–]chedabob 1 point2 points ago

The image stabilization made it way trippier.

[–]spangg 1 point2 points ago

Look at the background. It looks like they used a smoothcam filter or something similar. Though I'm not sure why they would bother for a video of a goat.

[–]bluelin3r 0 points1 point ago

Whoa, I didn't even notice it til you said look at the background. Premiere CS6 has some really good image stabilization, looks like that

[–]aceoftrachs 1 point2 points ago

I'm stealing and reserving this for all future goat posts.

[–]NyQuil012 114 points115 points ago

That goat's not drunk. The farmer is drunk, that's why the goat's butt hurts and it can't walk right.

[–]gnit2 45 points46 points ago

poor Colby...

COLBY IS SAFE!!!

[–]DeathToPennies 18 points19 points ago

[–]memeaddictedchick 0 points1 point ago

But seriously, is he? Was there an update?

[–]memeaddictedchick 1 point2 points ago

Oh thank god. I was so sad for that dog. I'm glad he's okay.

[–]ThatDudeWithoutKarma 1 point2 points ago

Ewe have got to be kidding.

[–]WKahle11 5 points6 points ago

Enough with the ewes! That's sheep. Ewes and rams. Goats are the same as deer, bucks and does. Edit: Males that have been castrated are mothers.

[–]ThatDudeWithoutKarma 0 points1 point ago

I know but I figured "kidding" (when a female goat gives birth for those who don't know) wouldn't be picked up on so I added ewe also. This is coming from one who raises goats and I hate myself for saying ewe....

[–]moltiin 0 points1 point ago

OOH. Question. I've always wanted to have a goat, can you make much money from having like 4 or 5?

[–]ThatDudeWithoutKarma 0 points1 point ago

I usually keep around 20-25, but I'm sure you can make money off of raising that amount. It's all about how you use your money and stuff.

[–]WKahle11 0 points1 point ago

My girlfriend raises goats too. I think she has around 20 to 30.

[–]moltiin 0 points1 point ago

And are there other ways to monetize them other than just the milk/cheese?

[–]ThatDudeWithoutKarma 0 points1 point ago

I actually raise Boer (pronounced boar) goats, which are used for meat. Very tender meat! Haha occasionally I would take one out of the herd and condition that one as a show goat and take it to fairs and make money in shows and such. At state fairs you can win a few thousand dollars for grand champion goats, also they usually have an auction after the fair and people will buy all the winning livestock and you get some nice money from that too.

[–]Way_too_poor 4 points5 points ago

That farmer isn't drunk! The camera work was so smooth I thought he had to be on rollerskates for it to be possible! I got your back, farmer bro.

[–]bjanos -2 points-1 points ago

Yeah the farmer is problably drunk

[–]Revoluzzer 14 points15 points ago

Why do some animals do that, anyway? I mean, we've all seen Oscar doing his thing, but I've never heard an explanation for this behaviour...

[–]pzeee 9 points10 points ago

Thanks for that, I have never seen that video before. It's as if he was making a protective circle around the dude's building!

[–]millertime8306 4 points5 points ago

Circle of Protection: Urine

[–]bestbeforeMar91 6 points7 points ago

The average molecular mass of Methane is 16g/mol. while air is 29g/mol., so Methane is lighter than air and thus provides lift for gassy goats.

To the people talking about the stability, you can get amazing stability with a tripod, held like a counterweight. There's a video by some scientist dude on youtube somewhere. I've forgotten his name, which annoys me.
