Take them there, they seem to think these geese are a protected species.

There is a federal law that allows the attorney general to grant a waiver to hunt such geese, but the law requires that they be given to homeless shelters for food. Roast Goose! Ooooh, Yummmm. Think of all the goose down we could collect as well. . . and feed the homeless . . . don't these people care about the homeless? ? ?

Geese are a protected species. Their relcoation plan works well so why would anyone suggest killing just for the fun of it? There are far too many people crowding out our planet than geese.

Geese arent destroying the ecosystem and causing global warming. Maybe some roast human needs to be on the menu, that would solve alot more of the worlds problems.
