Sorry about your goat. That sucks. +1 what Dogfish said. BB's will eat ANYTHING they can get their paws on including yearling Elk - which are a hell of a lot larger than a goat. Or the tube of toothpaste that you forgot to put in your hang bag. They don't care. They can easily scale and climb and are pretty smart at figuring out how to extract a meal from man-made structures. Grizzlies like to kill and bury their subjects for a bit before coming back later to dine. BB's will dig right in and start eating, even while the subject is still alive. Play dead with a Grizz and fight like the dickens with a BB.

Amazing amounts of scat this year on my hiking / fishing trails in the Monroe / Sultan area. Sultan Basin is lousy, lousy with bears this year. Lots of cubs around. Stay alert and bring a "little friend" for backup.
