These days you would be in deep doo doo if your dog killed that many Canada geese
They are lovely birds but I would love to see their population reduced. Poison them or shoot them I don’t care.
Seems like a lot of very envious eco-kooks up there. They don’t much like rich people having big lawns so they get a chance to be evil and vindictive to the swells who want to get rid of the Canada geese plague that makes their big lawns into open air goose latrines
I mean how can you enjoy your nice big lawn if you are going to break your neck slipping on a fresh turd?
What did these creatures look like before they evolved into birds?
Yanno, back when you were a kid?
A groundskeeper at a local golf club got fed up with the flyin rats and brought his shotgun to work one day. He got a dozen and some. Community was sympathetic, but they fired the guy.
About 4,000 were killed by Washington Fish & Game Dept. in Kirkland/Bellvue area awhile ago because they were not “migratory” and were pooping in the park that is frequented by the Liberal folks in that area. It is one of the few access points to Lake Washington still open to the public.
There is a retention pond down the street from my house that attracts geese. When I walk my golden retriever in the area they disappear pretty quickly. Do they perceive the dog as a predator? Like a wolf?
run thru windmills and feed the shredded poultry to the starving Baraqqi masses
Not well, but I’d like to get to know one or two much better. Lion-heart, mouse-body. ;)
I’ve had a few other dogs like that, though. Charge hell WITHOUT a bucket of water. All guts, no sense as all. ;)
Heck, I’ve got two like that, now, just larger than your average JRT. One blue-tick-X Mutt, and one either serious mutt or Belgian Griffon. 35 & 10 lbs, respectively. Seems to me JRT’s would run about half or less than the littler of my two. I’ve run into several Canada Geese bigger than the larger of mine, and THEY they all think they’re Jurassic Park Velociraptors when they get upset with someone.
What a waste. Round them up and feed them good food for a couple of weeks, and there is enough meat on a Canada Goose to feed a family of six a hearty roast goose dinner.

Years ago at 6AM I drove through some pigeons, trying to off a few. I'll admit I had imbibed a few the night before
Anyways I broke my car's plastic grill and was out $60 to replace it
Pigeons are so filthy, are the only birds I hate. I like Canada geese but they need to be thinned way way back. Why do chuckle head libs always cave into animals overwhelming them? It's nutty and bizarre.
euthenizing. That means “killing,” right?
Why don’t they just say that?
euthenizing is LEFTIST for killing.
It just makes them feel better and more rightous to say it. And do it the most expensive and difficult way possible.
I watched an adult Canada goose chase off a red fox once. It was quite a show. Nasty creatures, those geese.
Surprised they don’t call it murder........actually.
Just consider it a pilot project for Soylent Green. Freeze it into 5lb blocks and distribute it along with Government cheese
At the end of the day their supervisor asked Boudreaux and Thibodeaux how many pelicans they had cleaned.
Boureaux said he had cleaned 7 pelicans and Thibodeaux cleaned 10.
The supervisor asked to see where they had put the cleaned pelicans so they can be returned to the wild.
Boudreaux said "Mine in dat big pot. I'm makin' gumbo. And Thibodeauxs in dat other big pot. He's making a stew. You want us to make some potato salad?"
I have a 20 year old pump action BB rifle, and I've actually offed four squirrels with it this year; success rate, though, is less than half - penetration wise.
I'm halfway hoping one of our desert rattlesnakes comes into the yard this summer so I can try it on that....I don't like getting so close with the hoe; wifey's terrified I'll slip and fall during the decapitation process. I figure I can get within six feet and cap a few copper bb's into it's gourd and see what happens.
Hunters are bad dontcha know
;)
Yea my buddy once almost got fired from his job at a cemetery for throwing a rock in the general direction of a bunch of these vermin.
They crap all over the This award winning cemetery and there is not a thing they can do about it.
