Description - Unconventional Science: Controlling Invasive Species with Goats by Carol Hand

Around the world, scientists are finding cool and unusual ways to make people's lives better and help the environment. Some of these methods have been quietly used for centuries. Only recently have they earned much attention. Other methods use new technology in unexpected and even gross ways to clean things up and provide people with water and energy! Learn about the history of these fascinating methods, how they work and how they are making the world a better place. Invasive species are taking over native plants' habitats. Common control methods are dangerous or impractical. Some people are now turning to goats as a nontoxic and versatile way to deal with invasive species. Controlling Invasive Species with Goats look at the history of using goats to graze plants, why they work and the research that's being done to learn more. Easy-to-read text, vivid images and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources and an index. AGES: 8 to 11
