Osaka to have sheep weed riversides

IZUMI, Japan - Osaka Gov. Fusae Ota (C) prepares to feed two sheep in a ceremony to launch a prefectural project to have sheep weed riversides on Aug. 26 in Izumi, Osaka Prefecture. Weeding by sheep is less costly than by using manpower and it also makes people refrain from throwing garbage on the river banks, according to prefectural officials.
