Medical Supplies on the Trail
#2
I am no vet, but I have seen alot of really nasty wounds between Iraq, Afghanistan, and being a Firefighter.  All I carry is two large roles of kerlex, a large Ace, the purple disifecting spray stuff (wound coat) and my pistol. I think the list in order of priority of injuries a pack goat would recieve would be this-
Mechanical Injury- Twists, falls, breaks and dislocation.  Not much you can do.  Splint if possible.  I would do everything possible for this goat.  Totally survivable.

Animal Attack-  Domestic/ wild- Stop bleeding, clean, spray, dress.

Ballistic Injury- Red Necks during hunting season.  Dress the wound if possible.  Put your goat out if its missery if it is a abviously fatal injury.

Poisening- Depending on area you live in read a book know what to look for.  From what I have read a goatvwould have to eat quite a bit of wild poisinous plants vs. decorative plants around a house.  You can make a charcoal slery and try to get it into your goat which would cause vomiting.

People may really disagree with me but ....  this is just me.
