Highway Goats



Thanks to Paul Adeen for forwarding this picture from his travels in Yankee territory.
(Not exactly sure where he is at this point...Montana...Wyoming...Rhode Island...doesn't much matter since anyone from north of the Red River is a Yankee, anyhow.)

Study the picture closely soashow ya won't be fooled.

At first glance it may appear to be a photo of three Mountain Goats.

But upon closer inspection you will note the subtle tell-tale differences that distinguish these creatures from their distant cousins, several times removed.

Paul was fortunate enough to witness the rare and elusive Highway Goat in it's natural habitat.
