Judas goat
A Judas goat is a trained goat used in general animal herding. The Judas goat is trained to associate with sheep or cattle, leading them to a specific destination. In stockyards, a Judas goat will lead sheep to slaughter, while its own life is spared. Judas goats are also used to lead other animals to specific pens and onto trucks. They have fallen out of use in recent times, but can still be found in various smaller slaughterhouses in some parts of the world, as well as conservation projects.〔http://www.galapagos.org/conservation/project-isabela/〕
The term is a reference to the biblical character Judas Iscariot.〔(Judas Iscariot - Definitions from Dictionary.com )〕
