These domestic goats were actually introduced to the area (Burrington Combe, Somerset, England, UK - near Cheddar Gorge) many decades ago, in a successful attempt to keep the weeds, bushes and seedling trees on the cliff at bay, and the attractive rock face / gorge clear. They have thrived and established a small group in the wild, becoming something of a tourist attraction as they confidently climb the dangerous, steep cliffs.
