    Proposal abstract:

    the purpose of this project is to explore animal agriculture centered around meat goats. I would like to create two videos that can be shared with others. One video would center around the kidding process of goats such as signs of labor, the labor itself, and behavior of does and kids shortly after birth. The second video I would like to create and share would be about showing goats and how to get them prepared for a show; along with all the utilities needed and used in the process.
