They'd better hope no Jamaicans are around. It's Independence weekend and curry goat is a major part of the celebrations.

(90,803 posts)I like how they have lookouts in the street. Smart marauding takes smart planning. Note the smaller goats surrounding the humans - people always fall for the little cute ones - great distraction.
I really do hope the goats are OK.
