Australia has trouble with foxes killing off a penguin colony on Middle Island. The usual methods of "pest" control were not working.
A free range chicken farmer had a great suggestion. He uses Maremma Dogs to protect his chickens. He figured it would work the penguins. Now a pair of dogs happily protect the penguins and their numbers are increasing.
It is a friendly solution. The dogs are happy, the birds are happy and the foxes are okay.
Don't you love the sight of all those free range hens.
