welcome to meet with me @drakula. now I want to tell you about the goats smoking and chewing tobacco. hahaha, it's very funny when we hear it, but this is true. and happy reading.
Typically, a goat eats grass and leaves as a source of energy. Not only goats, other herbivorous animals such as cows and buffaloes are also fond of eating grass.
However, there are peculiarities that occur. In India there is a goat owned by a citizen who apparently likes to eat tobacco. In fact, the habit is the same as some people that is smoking.
Quoted from the Daily Mail page, because of its strange habit, this goat is so popular for the citizens of Mandya, India.
If a cat in a food stall often waits for bones and food scraps, then these goats are fond of hanging out in coffee shops and markets to expect to be given cigarettes by the men who are there.
In addition to smoking a cigarette, this goat also likes to chew tobacco or often called locals called 'beedis'.
Yashwant, the owner of the kambil said that his pet began to like cigarettes when eating every cigarette butt in the street or garbage can.
"Since then, I think the goat is hooked and cigarette addicted, and I've even seen the goat licking the empty cigarette pack," Yashwant said.
Initially, the man was not worried because most farmers use tobacco as a drug parasite repellent and worms in the goat's stomach.
If their pet goats are sick, the farmers usually give the tobacco to the livestock.
But this is denied by doctors who say that tobacco contains nicotine toxins that can actually cause disease and death in animals, including goats.
