The Mystery Will Be Explored Further
The idea of goats being kept on Lumon’s severed floor was first introduced in season 1, episode 5. While exploring the area, Helly and Mark stumble upon a room wherean unidentified man is feeding milk to baby goats, who cryptically warns them, “You can’t take them yet. They’re not ready,” before shouting at them to leave. InSeveranceseason 2 episode 3, Mark and Helly come across a grassy room where numerous goats roam under the watchful eyes of Lumon employees, including the head of the “Mammalians Nurturable” department, played by Gwendoline Christie.

As Helly and Mark venture around the severed floor in Severance season 2, they discover more about the mysterious goat room and their purpose.
As suggested by the short clip, it appears the upcomingSeveranceseason 2 finalewill continue to explore the mystery of the goats.One of the goats is seemingly being transportedfrom the Mammalians Nurturable department to another area, possibly so further tests can be conducted on them, or their full purpose may finally be revealed. If the goat in question is ready to leave and be transferred to another department, the season 2 finale will likely reveal something about the next phase of their testing.
Our Take On The Goats In Severance
What Is Their Purpose?
The presence of goats inSeveranceis likely related to Lumon’s secretive and sinister experiments on biological conditioning. The Mammalians Nurturable department could be raising the goats as test subjects to refine techniques for shaping severed individuals, possibly through genetic manipulation or psychological conditioning. The mention of “husbandry tanks” also suggests that Lumon might be experimenting with controlled environments, using the goats to perfect methods before applying them to severed humans. Hopefully, the mystery of the goats begins to unravel in theSeveranceseason 2 finale.
