Even before the arrival of Angora goats in South Africa they had been
tried in Holland, France and England. Australia also imported some in
1856, but the industry has not grown to any extent in any of these
countries. There have been some Angoras exported to Australia from
America since 1900. Canada, Mexico, Alaska, and some of the Pacific
Islands, have small flocks of Angora goats at the present time. The
start has been obtained largely from California.
