It is so dry the animals are gnawing the bark off the trees.

Pretty clever to have trained them in weed control - I think the leaves are too big to be small-leaved or Chinese privet

These are small-leaved privet. I got too close for the close-up: I was trying to show the new growth as well. Compare the nearby sighting of large-leaved privet.
