English ivy is the worst. It strangles every bit of plant life, destroys fencing and brickwork, and worst of all, it is impossible to eradicate. As the president of the local Audubon Society explained, “It’s hard to manage invasive species like English Ivy, but it’s even harder when those plants are on an island, and your organization doesn’t own a boat.” That was the situation on Maclellan Island, a nineteen-acre wildlife sanctuary in the middle of the Tennessee River. A range of invasive plant life was overrunning the island’s protected flora. After a “controlled burn” failed to resolve the problem, the local fire chief suggested a truly old school solution. Goats. No one had previously considered this remedy, but they were desperate. So, they took the advice and ordered six goats. But goats need 24/7 tending, and Maclellan is uninhabited. You know where this is going.
