Who would have thought that goats can go into an area, in the dead of winter when noxious weeds are dormant, and eat, not only the vegetation above ground, but the roots that are embedded into the frozen ground? And to think that they can remove a rhizomatous perennial plant such as leafy spurge, which has a root structure that can reach 30 feet below the surface - blows my mind. I will definitely be checking back into the Red Stone Review for future, well researched articles. Thanks. As I was reading this story I was blown away with the utility of these animals.
