What is about these Goat eyes?

Scarry or fascinating?

Goats eyes have always fascinated me from the first time I saw the rectangle pupil during the day & it becoming round in the dark.

How these eyes have played apart in art, folk lore, and story telling through out the ages but what is the real truth beyond the fascination of some people thinking the eye scary?

The goat’s eye in design has depth perception of 63° of binocular vision. Which give the ability to see where to jump and climb over difficult terrain.
Their pupils have 320°-340° vision where humans have 120° in comparison.
Meaning they can see almost completely around themselves. Their rectangles horizontal pupils control how much light they need to see in the dark.
It has been discovered that goats will use their eyes to look into human faces to communicate with them. A stare of concern or familiar recognition, trying to tell you something? They found that goats, like dogs do this same eye contact.

If you find that your goats are more attracted to certain things that you wear more than others, check out what color you are wearing it may be their favorite color!
Blues & Green, Red & Blacks get high marks.

Do Goats like what they see on our faces?
Why yes, they prefer smiles and happy faces over a anger or grumpy one. According to a study with pictures shown to a group of goats. They go the smiling faces.
My goal is reflect a smile in their eyes every day!
