For the Goatlovers

In India goats are kept mainly for milk production although goat meat would be eaten by the non Hindu population. Many households own one or two and they live happily tied up outside the house. These photos were taken in the back streets of the city of Mysore. They are well looked after and are walked on a lead to find feed daily and often are washed down in the river. Then at festival time they are proudly decorated !!!
