At a minimum, state that Best Available Science & research needs to be included, with respect to packgoats & wild sheep & this documentation needs to be included in their risk analysis. There needs to be a risk analysis specific to packgoats. Packgoats should not be "lumped" with sheep and other domestic goats.
Comments don't need to long, just one or 2 sentences will do.
