And so you should. 'Bite' and 'Goat' are words that somehow belong with each other, especially from the viewpoint of lions or other predatory beasts. I'm going to be using it from now on.

 

'Goat' is actually my favourite word. I'd be a terrible goat-herder as I would spend the majority of my time laughing, rather than keeping a proper eye on my goats.
