Title Livestock Guard Dogs, Llamas and Donkeys
Url http://www.ext.colostate.edu/pubs/livestk/01218.html
Description Guard dogs are an effective method to reduce predation on livestock. Guard llamas and donkeys also appear to reduce losses but appear less effective than guard dogs. Guard dogs can be used in farm flock/pasture operations, on open range, and in feedlots. Llamas and donkeys are most effective in fenced pastures less than 300 acres.
