A hiker has shared a video of herself tempting fate (and risking her fingers) by trying to pet a mountain goat as though it's a pet dog.
The clip (which you can watch below) was shared on Instagram account touronsofnationalparks, which shows examples of careless behavior at sites of natural beauty in the US. According to the caption, the encounter took place at Rocky Mountain National Park, where the goats are a non-native species. According to the National Park Service (NPS) they are a serious problem, and can spread disease to the native bighorn sheep.
