The next animals that we got we two baby fainting goats. Here is one of them, fully grown. Fainting goats get their name from a genetic condition they have where their joints stiffen up whenever they are startled and they can't move any of them. This lasts for perhaps 5 seconds or so, and more often than not, they fall over during this time. Afterwards, they get back up and go about their business like nothing happened. It does give you a start the first time you see it happen, but they are just fine afterwards.
