John,
A surprising hero has emerged to help the world's wildfire problem...
The ever-versatile goat!
Both goats and wildfires feed on dry, grassy brush, so these four-legged firefighters have been deployed all over the world as an effective and cost-efficient fire prevention strategy.
Learn more about this unconventional idea and the many benefits it has!
While this may seem like a new idea, goats have actually been helping to prevent forest fires since the days of the first grazing animals.
As if you needed another reason to love the goat! Not only are they adorable, friendly and help end hunger and poverty for struggling families — they're also on a mission to help fight fires all around the world!
Thanks for being a part of our Heifer family.
