Alien invasion on the islands - BBC Environment

The introduction of alien species onto the environmentally fragile Galapagos Islands is a hot issue to the conservationists. When 100,000 goats invaded the islands and threatened the survival of extraordinary rare breeds that call the Ecquadorian islands home, an extreme solution was chosen to combat the conservation nightmare. Learn more in this short video from BBC wildlife show 'Lonesome George and the Battle to Save Galapagos'.

no different then shooting over populated deer, wolves, raccoons, coyotes and whatnot in North America.... stop crying everybody.

Ya, why dont the humans just leave... why dont they? I wouldn't have a problem with it, but i dont live there...

And I'd shoot a goat. But I wouldn't waste the materials.

Yakcyackyack, PETA. I could shoot me some of them too... god they are annoying. (the extremists I mean). If PETA really wanted to do something, they would personally fly every individual goat away
