Pack goats... any info?

HC, buy yourself a couple good mules, ride one & pack the other.
Stock has been kinda cheap for a while now, not sure if it'll stay that way though.

What about Donkeys / burros? Same concern with impact to sheep?

There is no risk if you have tested goats that you know are negitive...Any good goat packer and all that I know have their goats tested regularly and keep a closed herd. They recently tested over 500 packgoats and came up with only one (unconclusive) positive of movie in a baby.

Here is a link to a video I did this last year with my string...they are an amazing critter and I enjoy helping new packers get into what we do. Using Pack Goats for Hunting Elk - YouTube

What about pack lamas vs goats. I am talking trained ones of course for both animals.

This would be a good thing to listen to. I'm not a llama fan. I'll leave it at that. [PODCAST] Dwite Sharp - Pack Goat Breeder

That was an amazing video. Looks tempting.
