That is a funny question and made me smile. 
I can't see how it would hurt to dye his hair brown. I also don't think his white color will spook elk though, so I'm not sure it's really necessary. The wildlife in our area seem to have no problem with our goats' loud-colored coats. I think prey animals look at shapes and movements more than colors. Goats walk like deer, so prey animals aren't going to pay much attention to them. What is more likely to alarm them is the shape of a pack on a goat's back, or the fact that your goat smells like humans.
