Seattle Airport Is Newly Fond of Farm Animals

While part of Florida is having serious issues when it comes to goats, Seattle has invited 'em over en masse.

Sea-Tac has contracted a local company called Goat Trimmers to provide about 200 animals to organically trim weeds on airport grounds. Says the outfit's website:

Skip the mowers and get your goat. The scrub grass we loathe is like French fries to billies, so rent a few four-legged lawnmowers for pesticide-free weed-clearing.

There's no word on how long the critters will be grazing at SEA, but it likely won't be for more than a couple days, so get there now if you like your farm animals with heads attached!

Update: LA is also doing this!

    I guess using goats as landscape workers is a real trend in the Pacific Northwest-- the University of Washington got their goats from Rent-A-Ruminant:
