Now we get excited about "getting bigger — much bigger" news because we have not seen anything else.
Shoot the geese. Sell the meat. Problem (which desn't exist anyway) solved.
Selling the meat would be illegal according to to Fish and Game laws, send it off to the food banks or kitchens feeding the poor.....the only problem is the people receiving it would probably turn their noses up at it....
JUST like Florida!
The skies of North America used to be covered with fowl. Then came whitey and the European-weirdoes who need foie gras.
Fun fact: Foie gras only comes from farmed geese that are force-fed grain through a funnel forcibly inserted down their throats.
So probably not a factor in wild geese populations.
