A goat is a domesticated species of goat-antelope typically kept as livestock. It was domesticated from the wild goat of Southwest Asia and Eastern Europe. The goat is a member of the animal family Bovidae and the tribe Caprini, meaning it is closely related to the sheep. There are over 300 distinct breeds of goat, and they have been used for milk, meat, fur, and skins.
In slang, GOAT stands for "greatest of all time," and is used to praise exceptional athletes, musicians, or other public figures. The term is also used to describe an object or event. The goat emoji is frequently used in place of the word GOAT.
In team sports, a "goat" is a person who is blamed for causing a failure or defeat. The term can also be used informally to describe a man who is very active sexually, or would like to be and makes it obvious.
