Riccardo Gullo, the mayor of an Italian island overrun by wild goats, has offered to give the animals away — free of charge.
A recent census estimated the number of goats on the five-square-kilometre Alicudi, the smallest of Sicily’s Aeolian archipelago, was six times the island’s year-round population of 100. This prompted Mr Gullo’s idea to give away the goats.
