I took the time to watch my goats. The ate the Oak leaves but passed on the Maple.   This strikes me as counter intuitive,

I figure if someone from the future hasn’t tried to stop me, I can’t be messing up that bad.

My little friend Orangina likes cork-oak leaves.

And oranges...

Maybe the goats pass up the maples because they were full from eating oak leaves.

My goats when I had them years ago liked any leaves and grass that I gave them.

I didn't have maple trees, though.
