Airport Uses Animals To Mow Grass

Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport has become the first to use a brand new sort of lawn mower: barnyard animals!

In a remote corner of the airport, a number of different barnyard animals were brought in to help cut the tons of grass that grows around there. Animals included on this mission are goats, sheep, wild burros and llamas.

O’Hare airport has always been very environmentally friendly and even has acres of green roofs! They’re also known for their quirky tactics, so this barnyard mowing system isn’t too big of a surprise.

Titled Project Herd, the animals have a herder who takes card of and keeps them from straying too far. To keep away hungry coyotes are part of the reason why the llamas and the wild burros have been included. One of the sheep in the herd even gave birth recently, to a little lamb named O’Hare!

What do you think of this bizarre new way of mowing the lawn?
