text: My understanding is that goats are not native to Kodiak and don't really have predators - which may not address the Cubs hat but may shed some light for people that are upset with the actual killing of the goat.  For some people the hat might have been seen as disrespectful, but from what I understand they killed it humanely, and used everything (including hide and bones) which to me is the most important piece that wasn't stated in the story.  I would be truly outraged if someone went out there and shot the goat and either did not use the meat or did not care for the meat and hide appropriately.
