PALMETTO, Fla. (CNN/WWSB) - Florida reporter Linda Carson learned a valuable lesson this week: never turn your back on a goat.

Carson was at the Manatee County Fair in Palmetto working on a story about kids that raise goats when one of the animals charged her and knocked her to the ground.

Thankfully Carson took the whole thing in stride and laughed it off.

She says it didn't even hurt.
