Eat the litter…

Chile's firefighting goats protect a native forest from deadly blazes


…or in this case stuff lying on the forest floor that would fuel fire.
"These animals can help us a lot," Di Napoli said, adding that other organizations should "evaluate where it can be applied, find where there's fuel and have the goats eat it."
