Animal photography: What is a young goat called?

in #animalphotography7 years ago

Young goats are known as kids. We also tend to refer to them as bucklings or doelings. This comes from the practice that most goat breeders have of calling a male goat a buck and a female a doe. Colloquially, goats are referred to as billies and nannies.

The words buck and doe are the apellations of choice. A castrated male goat is known as a wether.

The word kid is also used as verb to describe the caprine (having to do with goats) process of giving birth.
