Four female Tokara goats were used to investigate the relationship between lying behaviour and social dominance. Agonistic behaviour was recorded by observation and a dominance hierarchy was determined. Lying location, the interindividual distance and the order of lying down and standing up for each of four goats were recorded. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Dominant animals had priority over subordinate animals in the selection of lying position in the pen. 2. Twins were closely connected. 3. Subordinates kept dominants at a distance for flight and had a tendency to orient their sides toward the dominants. Jpn. J. Livest. Management, 33(1) : 1-8. 1997. Received November 28,1996.
