What would you say some of the advantages of growing up on a farm are, especially about working or being around animals?

This came up last night while going through some pictures. One was of a friend’s kid face to face with a goat, just before the goat butted her square in the head. It sounded like someone hitting a coconut with a bat. I know I’m terrible for laughing, but I couldn’t believe she was that lacking in knowledge of animals to put herself in that position. My s/o said to me “You’re a farmboy, you know these things. Most people don’t”. It made me stop and think. And it also made me think of the woman killed by the lion while driving in the park with the windows down. Um stop and think a bit. But if you’re not raised around different animals how do you know how to act around them?
