Goat Circus

Thursday, February 11, 2010

This video, at least for us, was sad to watch yet mesmerizing. The goat displays the most amazing sense of balance as it walks a tightrope with a monkey on its back, turns at the end of the rope, and then stands with all four feet — and the monkey — on a tiny pivoting platform put on the rope.

Eds. Note: It never ceases to amaze what bizarre things humans invent for animals to do. Made us want to run in there, grab the goat and the monkey and split.
