"goat should be butchering ready at about 8-10 months of age"
Do you think goats in the wild cannot survive longer than that?

Nature isn’t this magical place where all the animals frolic happily through green fields and die of old age.

Actually yes.
“Kids are weaned after 6 months. Female goats reach sexual maturity at 1½–2½ years, males at 3½–4 years. The lifespan of a goat can be from 12 to 22 years.”
Animals do survive and have populations. We need to rewild the Earth.
