I sent that info to a very bright student of mine who, with her husband,
runs a farm with sheep and goats. I agree with her, and didn't find the
paper to be ridiculous or astonishing at all. Below is an excerpt from her
reply:

Do I take it that Scott Lilienfeld doubts the efficacy of the
experiment? Two years ago my neighbor brought her steadfastly unattached
21-year-old daughter to the farm to see the babies. They witnessed twin
kids being born. The daughter promptly proposed to her boyfriend and had
a
baby. She says that seeing the birth and the mother goat's behavior
radically changed her feelings. Anecdotal but interesting. I'm a firm
believer in animal behavior informing our own (for better and worse).
