A goat walking on the side of the road on the way from Hora Sfakion to Anopolis 
A beautiful white goat on the Sfakia mountains. The goats that live on the mountains of Crete are much smaller than goats in northern Europe, because they have adjusted to the local environment: rocky slopes with not much food and water 
Another goat in Sfakia area. These goats live in a semi-wild condition, but they should be distinguished from the wild goat of Crete (kri-kri, Capra aegagrus creticus), which is a different species
