Thousands of deer culled to protect island
The Catalina Island Protection Authority in California plans to eliminate approximately 2,000 wild goats over the next five years, aiming to protect native plants and reduce the risk of wildfires that have been increasing due to the large goat populations, which cause environmental degradation and the spread of invasive, flammable grasses. The first phase will involve the hunting of about 200 goats over the next two months, following the growing goat population's role in damaging plant diversity and facilitating the spread of grasses that threaten the island's ecological safety.
