Pictures of Mountain Goats Defying Gravity

Mountain goats, or cliff-climbing goats, are actually not real goats! They are part of the antelope family.

Goat-antelopes.

They have mastered the art of climbing near-vertical slopes all in order to protect themselves from both animal and human predators. 

They are said to be an animal of high intelligence and quite alien-y..., due to their out-of-this-world defying gravity skills.
