There is a lot of wildlife in New World that you will encounter on your adventures. Some animals, such as bears, alligators, and wolves, will attack you on sight and can be challenging to fight against if you are not prepared. However, many animals are harmless and will not cause too many issues for you. Many are found roaming around the map including turkeys, rabbits, deer, and goats. You can hunt and harvest all of these animals for materials that you use in crafting and quests. By the end of this guide, you will learn where to find goats and their spawn locations in New World.
Where to Find Goats in New World
There are not many notable spawn locations for goats in New World. Compared to animals like turkeys and rabbits, goats are more difficult to find especially if you are a beginner that cannot yet access late-game areas. If you are a low-level player, your safest spot is north or southeast of Everfall. Since goats are rarer, you may find players in these two areas hunting them. This is especially true for fellow beginners who are unable to reach level 50-60 regions.
Some other locations include north and southwest of Reekwater, near Eastburn outpost in Great Cleave, and southwest of Valor Hold in Edengrove. However, Great Cleave is a level 41-50 region, while Reekwater and Valor Hold are both level 50-60 areas. These spawn locations are not ideal for low-level players but if you are higher level, you can risk entering these regions without much issue.
