Judas Iscariot achieved his eternal notoriety by his betrayal of Jesus using his Kiss of Death in the Garden of Gethsemane after the Last Supper. So it is with the #Judas Goat that leads other animals to the slaughter.
Judas Goat ex Wiki
A Judas goat is a trained goat used in general animal herding. The Judas goat is trained to associate with sheep or cattle, leading them to a specific destination. In stockyards, a Judas goat will lead sheep to slaughter,[1] while its own life is spared. Judas goats are also used to lead other animals to specific pens and onto trucks. They have fallen out of use in recent times,[citation needed] but can still be found in various smaller slaughterhouses in some parts of the world, as well as conservation projects.[2] Cattle herders may use a Judas steer to serve the same purpose as a Judas goat. The technique, and the term, originated from cattle drives in the United States in the 1800s.[3][4][5]The term is a reference to Judas Iscariot, an apostle of Jesus Christ who betrayed in the Bible.
A book called Judas Goats by by Michael Piper deals with the treachery, the infiltration of the nationalist movement in America.
