A Florida television reporter (Linda Carson) was in a pen of goats signing off from a report at a county fair, when one of the animals knocked her over with a vicious head butt.

She had just finished saying how friendly the goats were as she laughingly complained at one for gnawing on her pant leg.

The reporter laughed it off as she picked herself up, but she was only on her feet a few seconds when the goat charged her a second time, head butting her legs.

** Goats usually head-butt to establish dominance, but they also do it to be playful.
