Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:
California firefighters are enlisting help from some unusual allies to prevent more deadly wildfires from ripping across the state -- goats.
The Ventura County Fire Department is releasing hundreds of goats next week north of Los Angeles to eat dead brush that could become fuel for a fires.
"They'll eat until we like the way the landscape looks, and then we move them to another area," Captain Ken VanWig, who oversees the department's vegetation management program, said in an interview. "They're very effective."

Me, I want some of them fainting goats. They clear all the garbage off your property and if you're having a bad day just step outside and yell at them for a quick laugh.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
