Peta is professional “offended”s. And worrying about shelter? Goats have lived in pastors for thousands of years without the need of peta bafoons protecting them... God i wish Peta would go away.
Lets party like it’s 1886!!
I’m not sure from the wording of this article that PETA is so guilty in this particular case. Sounds like they said they don’t object to goats being used as lawnmowers as long as they’re treated well during the transportation and otherwise.
Funny Ping:)
Nice try but I believe that methane produced by animals produces more green house gasses than cars (I mean that seriously).
Relative of mine has couple to help keep the weeds down on the farm. They roam free and get into all kinds of mischief.
This article reminds me of some of the Flinstones clips, with the Flinstones using all sort of animals for tasks that are use machines in the modern day (remember the baby elephant vacuum cleaner, wood pecker can opener, etc...)?
What about the lawn treatments! Those poor goats might be exposed to toxic hazards as a greedy corporation tries to abuse their rights as animals and keep them as slaves to serve their corporate masters!
Wow, that stuff’s real easy to write.
Goats are used here in the Pac. NW to eat thorns and blackberry vines. The stickers do not bother them, it seems.
They will add some methane to the atmosphere though.
If the grass looks decent, might be worth it though....mowing sucks.
I think I need a goat.
No lawnmowing, gallon of milk a day, drying the little turdies to get great fertilizer and bug the neighbors who are big greenies and feed stray cats (along with rabid raccoons, mange infested squirrels, skunks etc with the bowls of cat food).
I’ll put the goat on their side of the house.
Lets be nice to the animals.
Goats are browsers.
Sheep are grazers as are cattle.
Goats are inefficient as lawn mowers.
My lawn is a 4’ pasture.
I asked the boss to bring one one of his steers (read steak etc on-the-hoof) down to chomp on it, but none of them are rope trained.
Goats suck at lawn mowing, they are browsers. You need sheep for grazing lawns.
When will the Service Employees Union start pushing card check for the goats?
An advantage of using a lawnmower is that you can walk or play on your lawn without stepping in piles of cr@p every 20 ft.
SanFran has been using goats to clean up grass and weeds for years - nothing new here.
