There is an Igbo proverb that says that when you see a chicken suddenly start running and no one is chasing it, the ground is chasing it because the chicken farted. No smoke without fire.

Look, they even posed for the camera. Out of curiosity, try speaking to them and see if they speak back.

The Goats are sitting on an "Argan" tree and They're looking for "argan" fruits.. this tree provides one of the most precious and valuable export for "Morocco". "Argan oil"... you're having fun in Morocco, Ric.Goat
@DanielRegha stated:
The above goats are from Morocco & those are argan trees which produces nuts so the goats climb trees with their hoofed legs to eat the nuts. Goats are have natural tree & cliff climbing skills; Their hooves helps 'em grip tightly while their shape helps maintain balance.
