Here’s another fact: On factory farms, goats and other animals not only suffer cruelty but also live in barren environments that deny their natural behaviors. At Farm Sanctuary, we know enrichment is essential for their well-being, and we prioritize enrichment that allows each species and individual we care for to live the best and most natural lives possible.
Sanctuary Animal Welfare Coordinator Kayla Perry recently installed detailed activity boards in the goat barn at our New York site. Some quickly needed repair due to daily enjoyment!
“Goats are very curious and enjoy having a lot of options in their space for tactile engagement,” says Kayla. “Providing them with safe ways to explore their surroundings can improve their cognitive experience while decreasing any potential damage they may do to their enclosure or themselves.”
Support our rescued goats and all Farm Sanctuary residents as we provide daily care and enrichment. There are many different ways to give to our mission.
