Capra aegagrus hircus
The domestic goat is a subspecies of goat domesticated from the wild goat of southwest Asia and Eastern Europe. The goat is a member of the Bovidae family and is closely related to the sheep as both are in the goat-antelope subfamily Caprinae. There are over three hundred distinct breeds of goat.[
These were taken at a petting zoo in South Carolina. The video shows some small goats playing. Standing up, dancing towards each other and butting heads.

Nice mammals, you could put that in the Mammals of the south eastern United States mission.
Love the babies playing together! Great captures!
Thank you Alice. I think it's so funny how the small goats seem to dance.
Very nice video!
