Someone Set Goats Hopping to Michael Jackson, and It's Somehow Perfect
No one can resist the power of music, especially when it's Michael Jackson on the radio. The power of his songs is so strong that even goats seem to love them. While their love of his music is completely valid and understandable, it's still a hilarious sight to see goats dancing along.
To the beat of "Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough," these goats compiled a few of their very best dance moves. The routine was uploaded by the St. Louis organization Kids on Kerth, which cares for the goats. Created as a fun place to hang out with goats for special events or an extra pick-me-up, we can certainly see how entertaining it would be to spend some time with these talented goats.

"Playing the GOAT's Music for a GOAT!"

The kids, the official term for baby goats, are one with the rhythm in the latest clip shared by Kids on Kerth. Jumping, hopping and even drifting on beat, there's no doubt that these are a group of Michael Jackson fans. Between the timing and tiny hooves stomping on the floor, it's almost impossible not to break out a move yourself.
The viewers in the comment section were also feeling the video, with one user commenting, "Playing the GOAT'S music for a GOAT!" Another viewer added, "You know who'd adore this video? Yeah MJ. You know he would. The perfect accompaniment to his hit song."

Another person commented, "Ever seen a goat drifting ??? Watch this." A very fair statement considering we've never seen a kid drift either.
For her part, these kids' human captioned the moment with "Just out here producing goat choreography content," a job description we definitely didn't know was a possibility.
Why Do Kids "Dance"?
Beyond their obvious talent for the King of Pop, these baby goats exhibit a natural behavior called "pranking" or "pronking," in which they engage in spontaneous vertical leaps and bounds to build vital coordination and strength in their earliest weeks.
These sudden jumps and ‘drifting' are also part of their survival instincts at play. Vital for evading large prey, these sudden moves help goats move out of danger at a moment's notice.
However, like any animal or pet, kids are also known for jumping and hopping out of happiness. Much like a dog wagging their tail, jumping is a way for baby goats to express their joy and excitement, and we must say it's probably the cutest expression of glee we've ever seen.
