In June, a team of wildlife experts will work to remove feral goats from the Aeolian island of Alicudi to address the overpopulation that is causing issues for the human inhabitants and the island's biodiversity. The goats will be captured, tested for diseases, and transported to Sicily for adoption. However, capturing the agile and robust goats on the rugged island poses significant challenges. The initiative has drawn both support and criticism, with concerns raised about the goats' removal from their familiar territory. The fate of the captured goats and the potential for culling if capture efforts fail are also points of contention. The situation underscores the complex nature of managing feral animal populations in unique environments.
