Same same...... but different :-)

The young goats stomach contents is one of the *original* rennets

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rennet

Sources

Thousands of years ago, people discovered that milk stored in a dried
stomach – especially the fourth stomach of a young calf – will become
hard and remain fit to eat for a long time.

The most common source for animal-based rennet is the abomasum (fourth
stomach) of slaughtered, milk-fed, newborn cow calves. However, stomachs
of other young ruminants such as goats (for goat's milk) or lamb (for
ewe's milk), and pseudo-ruminants like camels (for camel's milk) are
also used.
