I'm trying to figure out the 24/7 on-call requirement for goat herding. Are there really that many SEV0 goat deployments?

There are two common categories of SEV0 in goatherding:

1. Escaped goat. Goats are amazing climbers and there is really not a fence invented that can defeat them if motivated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkuNn8iXOwM

2. Predator attack. Many grazers use livestock guardian dogs, but it happens.
