Who knew that wild goats were an issue in Hawaii, or at least they are on the Big Island. We saw quite a few in our five days here. This was the first group, a family of four working their way down the old lava flow toward the sea. Mom watched the “kids.” Dad watched us. There are so many in this area near HOnaunau Park that they have built a fence to keep them out of some parts and gave away - no idea to whom or how, sorry I should not butt in like that:) - 400 goats last spring. The ranger said that they estimate about 300 births since then, so not much headway in goat control.
