ended on a West Boise neighborhood on Friday morning.

Residents of an Idaho suburb woke up Friday morning to a sight that really got their goat.

An invading herd of more than 100 goats rampaged through the neighborhood of West Boise, devouring flowerbeds, grass and leaves as they moved from yard to yard on Friday morning, NBC affiliate KTVB reported.

Representatives of the company that owns the animals, We Rent Goats, arrived at the scene and managed to herd the goats onto a truck around 9 a.m., less than two hours after the initial calls were fielded by Animal Control from the 10000 block of W. Summerwind Drive.

As the goats were rounded up by their handlers, a throng of onlookers and reporters — rivaling the goat herd in size — gathered to watch.

That had to be one heck of a 911 call.

"Help! The neighborhood is being invaded by goats! Dozens of them! I see them everywhere!"

"Sir, it's nine in the morning. Put the bottle down."

I see hired Goats a lot over here. They are usually placed on hillsides, in the valley or along steep inclines next to freeways and left to nibble all day long. Ivy vines, Ice plants, French Broom, towers of Anise, Queen Annes Lace and various Crab Grasses are there free for the taking. All you can eat!

I’m always surprised the goats don’t wander away into the neighborhoods more often. I’m always relived when I don’t hear about anybody letting their unleashed
Pit Bull dogs run after the goats.

That business would do well in parts of Michigan if you catch my drift.

“Representatives of the company that owns the animals, We Rent Goats...”

I wonder how many Muslims read this article and then called to inquire about their hourly rates?
