RANCHO PALOS VERDES, Calif. — Once a year, the Littleford family gets to hang out a few of their favorite kids…. and by kids, they mean goats. Anna Littleford grew up in Palos Verdes and is part of the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy's 'adopt a goat' program. The nonprofit hires hundreds of goats every spring for several reasons, including to clear out invasive species so that they can get more native plants in the ground. The goal is to protect and restore the local habitat. The goats also help clear dry, brittle vegetation that can fuel wildfires.
