Got screamed at by a goat in a coworking space in Bali last month

I was video calling a client in this open-air coworking spot near Ubud, trying to sound professional, when this loud goat wandered right up to my table and started bleating directly into my mic. Turns out the building was built on an old farm path and the goats still use it as a shortcut every afternoon. Has anyone else had a wild animal interrupt their remote work?

Read a piece recently about how those Balinese goats have been using those paths for generations. @leog68 has a point about it being memorable, but pretty sure my client didn't appreciate the unplanned audio of a goat mid-bleat. Had a similar thing happen with a peacock at a cafe in Chiang Mai last year, except it just stood on the roof staring everyone down for an hour.

I mean, honestly that sounds kind of amazing. Maybe it's just me but a goat walking through your coworking space seems way more memorable than another boring day of Zoom calls. I'd actually welcome that distraction.
