The Boer or Boerbok is a South African breed of meat goat.[2] It was selectively bred in the Eastern Cape from about 1920 for meat qualities and for the ability to survive by grazing on the thorn veldt of that region.[4]: 363 It has been exported to many countries, and has been used to improve the meat qualities of other breeds.[5]: 10 [3]
