A somewhat related sheep story - most of us here have heard the story that the RGS used "Judas goats" to mingle with the sheep and lead them into the cars, then leave, for which they were rewarded with plugs of chewing tobacco. That story is true! Here in Ridgway in our RGS company archives, we have receipts for chewing tobacco that are specifically labeled for use by the goats.
