Title: Goats arrested/poisoned
Post by: fifi on June 19, 2013, 22:55:36 PM
49 Goats were arrested in Triquivijate for grazing on private property. :) I cant get a great translation for the story but here it is in Spanish. http://www.canarias7.es/articulo.cfm?id=304188 (http://www.canarias7.es/articulo.cfm?id=304188)

Could these be the same goats that were seen on the Golf course? :)

Well Ronnie....I must admit  I  felt a certain connection with that one and bailed him out. :)  I took his picture  after I shaved off his beard (it was a bit too tickly for my liking)......and he looked so happy.  :)  :D :D :D

As for the other one.....I think the Guardia may have kept him happy. ;)

Oh dear. The Goats are in the news again. :o

(http://fotos02.laprovincia.es/2013/09/03/646x260/ganaderos-denuncian.jpg)

Goat farmers on the Island are complaining that their herds are being stolen and moved to remote areas where they are being arrested, or slaughtered for the illegal meat industry.

The poor Goats. It is not their year I am afraid. They are in the news again and this time it is sad news. Several have been found dead recently on the Island and the matter is being investigated. It is thought that they may have either injested toxic prunings from Oleander plants or Insecticides

(http://library.thinkquest.org/C007974/media/1_1ole.jpg)

These beautiful plants are highly poisonous and one leaf is enough to cause death. The characteristic poisoning symptoms are as follows: nausea, vomiting, accelerated or retarded heartbeat, and cardiac arrest. http://www.canarias7.es/articulo.cfm?id=313054 (http://www.canarias7.es/articulo.cfm?id=313054)
