Ordon Goats are raised as the main livestock of [[Ordon Village]], the other being [[Cucco]]s although they just seem to be pets. The goats are held and raised in [[Ordon Ranch]], south of the village and owned by [[Fado (Twilight Princess)|Fado]]. Fado's job is to ensure the goats' well being and herd them, and he employs Link as a ranch-hand to round them up into the barn with Epona. Fado often slips up and and is known to accidentally let a goat escape the ranch, forcing a villager outside to grab onto their horns and stop the goat in its tracks. Their smooth horns allow easy grip.

The goats are raised to produce milk, much like a real goat would. The milk can also be turned into circular, yellow [[Ordon Goat Cheese|cheese]] in the shape of a donut, recalling the characteristic shape of an Ordon Goat's horns. Besides having the goats produce food for the village, it would also seem that Ordon Village ships many of its livestock goods to other parts of [[Hyrule]] &mdash; milk is sold in a select few shops in other places of Hyrule, and Link can obtain some Ordon Goat Cheese in [[Snowpeak Ruins]]. Drinking goat milk restores one's health, and the cheese can be used to make [[Soups in Twilight Princess|cheesy soups]] that heal even more.

The Ordon Goats are regarded to be very important to the lifestyle and economy of Ordon Village. The village shows a few goat themes as decoration, such as the sign posts and [[Ordon Shield]] having Ordon Goat horns.

*It it possible that the goats were once part of the Ordona Province's wildlife, as [[Ordona (Spirit)|Ordona]], the [[Spirits of Light|Spirit of Light]] of Ordon, strongly resembles an Ordon Goat, which most likely would have existed long before Ordon Village was built. The Ordon Goats were probably named after the village, which in turn was named after Ordona.

*When Link has approached an Ordon Goat, he can gently pet it. Petting a goat does nothing but merely makes the goat raise its head, which is usually pointed towards the ground, and briefly bleat. Petting is merely a gimmick added within the game. Later on in the game, standing in front of an Ordon Goat will give one the option to grab it's horns and flip it over, which will make it angrily charge at Link.

*As the [[Cucco's Revenge Squad]] has been removed from ''Twilight Princess'', Ordon Goats will attack Link if he attacks them.
