In Union County, NJ the local officials gassed 2,700 geese and through them into a landfill.
Do you know how many food pantries that meat could have supplied??!!
That was such a sin.
I wish they would stop restraining hunters. Cause they would even work with the locales on donating the meat if they couldn't use it themselves.
I remember a story sort of like that but the county sent the birds to a processing facility and got back hundreds of pounds of meat that they were going to distribute to welfare families. An interest group sued to prevent the distribution, saying the meat was filled with bacteria, feather parts, etc.
The judge ruled against the distribution and the meat was thrown away.
