Our local power company, SDG&E, contracts for weed removal with local owner of goats. These pictures were taken today in south Chula Vista, San Diego County. There were roughly 200+ goats in a chain-link fenced area, about 100' x 400', under the high voltage towers. (SDG&E right of way). Lots of people stopping to look/pet them. The last photo shows the "caretakers" up the hill about 1000' away.
That is a large work crew. Area looks stripped?
Years ago I stayed at a private house in Mountain View, AR. Owner had a tract of land parallel to Main Street that he wanted to develop, so he rough fenced it and bought about 25 goats. The goats were doing a good job when I was there; I got a few pics (long lost on film). Then a few weeks later the herd opted for a change of venue overnight. After Mr Jones got all his goats back; he decided that the project was not worth the public lashback, and sold them all.
They are interesting animals, when on the other side of the fence. They were not so friendly up close.
