They've got to be kidding.

Only me and 600 goats can make a BBQ

GIS for 'Smokey the Bear':



I'm stunned... Beavis and Butt-head claim yet another victim...

/need sleep

He and his brothers are shepherds for the flock, which includes shaggy Angoras, droopy-earned Nubians and the Boer goat, which is valued for its meat.

Meat so prized, that even wars have been fought for it.

Bah! Trogdor will burninate the foolish goats!
((You knew this was gonna be in here somwehre. May as well get it out of the way. That, and it's so late and I'm so sleepy that I actually think this is a witty comment. Yay for lack of sleep!))

They're already doing that over by the Oakland Zoo. When you drive by you'll see 100s of goats chewing away. Pretty cool idea, methinks!

Goats make the best curries.

Not that goats make the curries, curries made from goats... yum.

Do you guys pur bacon in your curries? You should try it.

Did somebody say goats ?

Why do goats have flat feet?

To stomp out forest fires.

Why do elephants have flat feet?

To stomp out burning goats.

My tax dollars at work.
300 acres x 173/acre== paying some guy 51,900 dollars to let his goats eat. Shouldn't the goatherder be paying the forest service for feed instead?

Sounds like I should sell goats to the forest service.

I like Dubya's idea better. Remove the trees. No more forest fires.

Did somebody say filter?

Give me one chainsaw, and I'll prevent that forest fire for half the price.

Let it burn pout the goats on a giant spit and use that helicopter to hover it over the fire for 45 to an hour...season to taste

Wow, two stories in one evening of government initiatives that actually make sense! It reminds me of the cows we had grazing on our back 40 at a small Army post in Germany.

This deserves a "Cool" tag. Beats the hell out of clearcutting, and actually removes the stuff that causes massive fires. Cool!

"Goats make the best curries.

Ahh man, leave the poor lil goats alone. Get yourself a can of Sweet Sue's Chicken and Dumplings and put some curry in that! Other brand names are optional. Use your favorite curry powder, I usually microwave some raisins with the curry in a little bit of water, don't evaporate the H2O!, then just add it together, slowly microwaving and stirring.
Or just go to an indian restaurant, no , I'm not kidding!
I may have to try adding bacon.
/hmmmmm....

Way cool!

I do this in my forestry work in the Sierras. I have a herd of goats who are tended by a hired hand, who, in turn, milks the goats and makes the valuable goat milk available for me to drink and to sell on the market. It's a win-win in every way imaginable.

Nature is smart--ya just gotta know what you are doing, like good love-making.

Yeah, I got it. True, it's a classic. Maybe it should be updated to "only ewes can prevent...". Haha.

We have 2 goats on one acre, and they keep the overgrowth down. We had some friends who didnt ever get poison ivy when they drank goats milk, because the nanny would eat poison ivy, and they were immune. But the second they got rid of it, they started getting ivy again.

Only who can prevent forest fires?

You pressed you, meaning me, the correct answer was you

Eating bush is good for the environment

Why burn forests when you can burn animals? It makes perfect sense.
