When my friend, Annie started her goatery program through her UK-based charity, Goats and Hopes, she named her favorite goat, “Annie”, after herself. The tribal people laughed at the notion of giving an animal a name, but nevertheless, the name stuck. Well it turns out that “Annie” (the goat) grew up to be quite the fertility goddess, giving birth over and over again to kids that her owners could sell in the market. I actually got to meet Annie and her owners when visiting their village at “Camp 6″ (one of the government resettlement camps for families displaced by the Kolab hydroelectric dam project). Annie’s owners were able to use the profits to repair their leaking roof and buy a plow which has enabled them to spend more time farming (their true passion) and less time migrating for day labor work. Maybe there’s some luck attached to giving goats names. What would you name your goat?
