I imagine down lower on the mountain, sure. but up in the Sequoia National Forest, its very difficult to get the goats and our effectively. The HUGE trees are best served by removing deadfall, and any other fuel at their base.

the deadfall the goats wouldn't be able to do but any scrub they can handle. I didn't say they were the only solution. They are one being used and an environmentally effective one.
