Fainting goats- I read somewhere (can’t be arsed looking for the link-channeling Pantload here) that they were often used to “take one for the team” by sheep ranchers who had to deal with predators. Now, Micky Kaus (another predator) uses them for his pleasure, as the goats cannot evade him when he’s on the prowl.
