Goats are sort of the default livestock because they can usually make do. Smidgen of grass on rocky soil? Goats will eat it. Cows are big and need more land and resources, but any farmer can string a few goats on a leash and let them graze. Chickens and pigs don’t give milk or have useful skins.
Vegetarian? Just drink the milk. Religious prohibition? They’re kosher and halal.
