I honestly don't see the difference between this and a person feeding their pet snake live bait. I guess the fluffy factor is a little higher with a goat than a mouse maybe?
Nature shows are more for education rather than entertainment. But you do get an entertainment factor out of it. I didn't read the article, but based on what has been said in the thread, it sounds like some people paid money, in order to watch the lions destroy the goat. That to me is more about entertainment, than education. Especially if they dropped it from above.
