The mandate of the CNGF is to represent all goat producers in Canada and further the viability, expansion and prosperity of the Canadian goat industry, which includes milk, meat and fibre. Unlike most other livestock associations, the CNGF does not have individual producer members. Rather, the other provincial and national goat associations are member organizations of the CNGF. 3, record 1, English, - Canadian%20National%20Goat%20Federation

Scientists engineer "spider" goat... Scientists at a Montreal firm have engineered a goat that has a spider's gene to make it produce super-strong spider silk in its milk. Nexia Biotechnologies Inc says production of the silk itself is set to start before the end of this year. When a "spider goat" lactates, the silk protein is extracted from its milk and turned into filament to be spun into fibre. The light but extremely strong material has applications in the medical, aerodynamic and engineering industries. 1, record 4, English, - spider%20goat
