Make goats fight back when hit

Goats are a little depressing in the newest beta. I love all of their new features, but they randomly attack mobs like skeletons just once, then die to the mobs because they don't fight back when the skeleton challenges them back. This means nighttime is pretty much a massacre for any living goat, and it's pretty sad to see. I would like to see goats fight back and hit their attacker at least once (maybe three times or so) to stop them from dying so fast.

  Perhaps upon being attacked the goat would either run away quickly or maneuver around the mob while preparing for another charge. In order to charge they may loop around and gain some distance in order to charge again. If they charge into a shield there is a chance of their horns getting knocked off.

  I think if you hit the goat when you’re right next to it, it should do an instant attack with slight knockback. Then, if you hit it again, it will do this attack again, but follow up with a charge.

  However, if your first attack does enough damage (like if you’re using a sword), it should do the small attack and follow with a charge without waiting for you to attack it again.
