It is very unlikely that you will spot a goat at Goat Island. You might see a donkey. You will probably see lots of snapper if you go under snorkelling.
Crabs are scavengers. This means that they will eat things they find that are already dead. We saw a crab eating another dead crab at Goat Island. This makes them cannibals (an animal which eats its own kind) - gross!
