In Morocco, Goats Grow On Trees

Mountain goats are called mountain goats because they're capable of climbing mountains. But did you know they could also climb trees when the situation calls for it? Now you do, and you have this picture as evidence. This is a genuine image, taken in Morocco. It's not the goats that are unusual here though; it's the tree itself.

Specifically, this is an Argania tree. It produces a type of nut which, whilst uninteresting to humans, goats go wild for. If there's a nut on the farthest branch, at the very top of the tree, you can bet a goat will still try to reach it. Goats hang around in herds, so when one of they see one of their friends start climbing, the rest are bound to follow. Whilst their position may look precarious, they're surprisingly agile creatures, and none of them are in any danger of falling off.
