Have you seen a baby goat jump? They are good jumpers. I think this would literally only prevent turtles. Copper tape/wire around the sides would help with snails. Some tall rebar with chicken wire wrapped around will keep goats and deer mostly out. They will push in as far as they can to nibble through the wire.

Sorry about your goats :(

No worries, those weren't my goats. They were my neighbour's. Appreciate the sympathy
