Final answer:

Without specific details about the island in question, the final answer is speculated to be goats and deer based on references citing both animals in various contexts. Goats are historically present near human settlements like those in the Middle East, and deer are commonly found across different environments, including islands.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question seems to approach the subject of island biogeography and evolutionary adaptations, which suggests that the student is studying biology, specifically zoology or ecology. From the provided references, none directly answer the question about the two kinds of animals present on a specific island, but the references do mention animals and their respective regions or adaptations.

From the context, one can infer that the student needs to identify which two of the provided options (goats, sheep, deer, horses) are likely to be found together on an island. Based on the references provided, notably FIGURE 7.5, which mentions a herd of goats near Jericho, and the last piece of provided information that included deer within the list of animals found in certain environments, one might conclude that the 'island' in question possibly refers to an environment where both goats and deer may cohabit.
