Natural Climbing Adaptation: Goats have cloven hooves and a flexible build that allows them to balance easily on tree branches, particularly the thorny argan trees.
Ecosystem and Seed Dispersal: When goats eat the fruits, they help spread argan seeds, supporting tree growth and regeneration in the region.
