    I think this is a good thing if people know what they are doing. Sometimes people get goats to clear land. But when the land is cleared and the job is done the food for the goats is gone that opens up another proplem how to feed them.
    I have seen goats tied up to a post in the field with no food and that is sad. People that use these animals must think this out don't think you can turn them out and not care for them. In the winter you have to feed them if you live in a cold state. You must also have enough land a goat can eat alot.
    Thanks EE another good article.
