In my hometown it was decided some years back to hire a sheep herder who travels around with his sheep to various locations in town, throughout the year.
The use of sheep has several advantages:
• People enjoy seeing them, plenty of parents with kids pass by
• They eat Japanese knotweed, an invasive, very damaging weed to infrastructure and local plant life
• The land itself is damaged much less by sheep than heavy machines, much of the ground is soft fertile soil
