This is what I take from it :
Sheep : Humble, down to earth, persistent, forgiving
Goat : Indignant, annoyed, stubborn
What are your thoughts?

I did notice that, yes. Goats tend to be more curious, and want to go searching for better things to eat, thus the reason for tying him up, so that he doesn't run away and make trouble, whereas the sheep is perfectly content with what he has, save that for some reason, he really wants to be close to that goat!
What are your thoughts on the video posted in the OP?edit on 23-2-2014 by graphuto because: (no reason given)
the goat is the stronger animal, yet he seems rather gentle don't you think?

Poor goat cannot escape - notice it is tied up. The sheep can wander free but won't leave the goat alone - the goat is not actually hurting the sheep but is very frustrated.

The goat is tied up because he will run off in search of "greener pastures" if he isn't. Why does the goat need to escape? He has the food he needs at his feet!
The sheep needs no freedom, simply trust in his shephard.
