'''Eater Goats''' are hungry flesh-eating goats capable of eating almost anything and also willing to eat almost anything.

== Appearance ==
They look like normal goats, except for an unnaturally big mouth, with pointed<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2016/12/18/1-08-r/ Chapter 1.08 R]</ref> sharp omnivore’s teeth and off-putting brown eyes, with a horizontal bar as pupils.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/05/08/4-33/ Chapter 4.33]</ref>

== Overview ==
Eater Goats are village-killing monsters,<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/01/11/1-11-r/ Chapter 1.11 R]</ref> that are mostly found in the [[High Passes]].

Eater Goats are considered a Gold-rank threat because these packs of goats hunt relentlessly. Perhaps not deadly to most adventurers individually, Eater Goats instill fear in other monsters and people alike as they swarm over anything they consider food, which sometimes includes each other.<ref name=":Glossary">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/10/19/glossary/#E Glossary]</ref>

== Reproduction ==
Eater Goats reproduce by eating so much that their stomach ruptures. When this happens, a strange gestation happens, and three hours later the Eater Goat vomit out a young Eater Goat.

Child Eater Goats already have teeth as sharp as flint upon birth, and are hungry. It takes them days or weeks to grow their tough fur.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/08/30/9-12/ Chapter 9.12]</ref>

== Power and Abilities ==
Difficult to kill because of their incredible tenacity, Eater Goats will bite even if only their decapitated head remains. Their jaws can tear through steel and Eater Goats are smart enough to even bypass tall walls with their incredible agility and jumping power.<ref name=":Glossary" />

With luck and talent, an Eater Goat can transcend the rest of their kind and become a [[Void Goats|Void Eater Goat]].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/08/06/interlude-the-competition/ Interlude - The Competition]</ref>
