A baby goat is commonly referred to as a "kid." This term is used to differentiate young goats from adults, typically those that are less than a year old. Kids are known for their playful and energetic behavior, often seen frolicking around in their pastures. Goats, especially kids, are social animals and thrive in herds. The term "kid" has also been widely adopted in various contexts, even outside of animal husbandry, to describe youths or young individuals in a colloquial form.
