All the animals in Rhyddings park are in fenced off enclosures. The goat butted the fence so the lady must have had her face very close to it. The wording in the paper does not make it clear that the goats are behind a fence.
Below is a quote from the Observer website.
Quote:
As I moved back I realised I had been attacked by a goat which continued to buck, narrowly missing me and hitting the fence. It was such a shock as I didn’t even see it coming.
The situation was really dangerous as the goat also kicked me in the temple, causing a deep cut and severe bruising. I was really lucky not to be knocked unconscious.

If the lady had moved away from the fence how could he have kicked her in the temple. I can honestly say I have never seen him kick. I believe he would only kick if you got behind him and he felt threatened.
