Goats of Nepaul & Upper Egypt

The Nepaul Goat is high and slender, with an arched nose from convex nasal bones and long pendulous ears generally white or paler than the body. The Goat of Upper Egypt is generally brown, standing high in similar form, its hair longer and shaggier, the nasal bones much raised and the face recalling a pug; its ears are ample and pendent, two fleshy tubercles often hang from the neck, and the female’s udder is very pendent.
