Requested move

Why was this page moved? Most links point to "Mountain goat" and that appears to be the more common name. Jonathunder 20:43, 2005 September 4 (UTC)

Has already been moved.AxSkov () 03:55, 6 September 2005 (UTC)--except that it was not moved to where it was requested. Jonathunder 22:07, 2005 September 6 (UTC)

This article has been renamed after the result of a move request. And "mountain goat" it is. Dragons flight 05:08, 14 September 2005 (UTC) Kanye west

Thanks for pointing that out, BenA! I took it out. - Sasha Kopf 20:39, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

climbing mountain goats

There are some great pictures showing climbing mountain goats. Should some of those be added to the gallery, or linked so as to reference the fact that mountain goats are well suited for climbing?
