Lucky you!
While I can very easily buy a live goat online, goat meat is seldom eaten in south China and even the goat meat common in northern China doesn't get here for some reason.
Another problem is that, as in many languages, in everyday Chinese 'goat' and 'sheep' are the same word (羊肉 - yáng ròu) , so even if you find either, you never really know what you are buying.
