A hungry herd of 500 goats has helped save the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library from the California wildfires.

In May, the library hired the goats to clear flammable scrub surrounding the complex as a preventative measure.

The goats ate the brush, creating a fire break that slowed the flames and gave firefighters extra time to react.

The heard included goats named Vincent van Goat, Selena Goatmez and Goatzart.

They helped save exhibits including an Air Force One jet and a piece of the Berlin Wall.
