Judas goat

Sometimes, farmers or scientists want to move a group of animals in a certain direction or to a specific location. They might use a clever trick involving a special goat called a Judas goat.

The Judas goat is trained to lead other animals, like sheep or cows, to where the humans want them to go. This goat is very smart and knows how to get the other animals to follow it. The Judas goat helps the farmers or scientists do their jobs more easily and quickly because they don't have to chase or force the other animals to move.

Imagine you and your friends are playing a game of follow-the-leader, and your friend Sam is really good at leading the group. The Judas goat is just like Sam, but instead of playing a game, it helps people move animals where they need to go.
