You are correct! There is a park near here which has hundreds of geese and getting worse each year. You see, the geese always return to their nesting areas. It's so overrun now and getting so bad, they want to shoot some and give the birds to the hungry people. Since this area is very conservative, and 12 out of 10 people are hunters (kids in school get a holiday for deer hunting!), there isn't much opposition. And those that do oppose it are laughed at. Hahaha, we had the PETA people here protesting the Ocsar Mayer weiner mobile and they were told to get out of dodge. That was right after they had the nerve to want to rename our beloved Packers to the Pickers or whatever. It was great!

It is amazing what they can do to a park or golf course.

There are a couple of guys with a couple of unique ways to move the geese out.

One uses a falcon. Of course that upsets the Peta people. However one goose kill by the falcon, and the survivors get out dodge quickly.

Another one uses Aussie Sheep dogs. They just keep herding the geese until they get up and leave. That upsets the Peta people.

The problem is that in a few days they return or a new flock comes in to become pests again. The problem is that some people sneak around and feed them. Of course that upsets the Peta people.
