San Clemente Island Goat Association Feral Page (388 words)
Some San Clemente Island goat owners are fortunate enough to be able to let their goats run free on hundreds of acres.
On San Clemente Island, when most of the goats had been exterminated and there was abundant space and food for the rest, birth rates were 50% twins, 40% single births, and 10% triplets.
The hardiness of the goats is very apparent in most situations, but the enviroment on your land may be different than the enviroment they were bred to endure—keep a tight eye on what's happening with your herd until it's very well established.
Guadalupe Island, Mexico, Isla Guadalupe Photos, Phillip Colla Photography (798 words)
Guadalupe Island lies 150 miles offshore of the Pacific coast of Mexico, roughly south of San Diego and WNW of Punta Eugenia on the Baja California peninsula.
This large (98 square mile, 22 mile long) island is environmentally isolated, surrounded as it is by deep water, some of which attains depths of 12,000' between the island and the mainland.
Goats introduced by sealers and failed ranching enterprises have wiped the island clean of most vegetation, including most of the pines and cypress.
