Born to be wild
Article Abstract:
Canada geese populations are becoming suburban nuisances. Thought to be extinct in the 1950s, the geese are numerous enough in the '90s to take up residence at golf courses, business parks, and any open space with water and vegetation. Most of the problem is caused by resident geese, which are difficult to tell from migratory populations without careful study. Since the resident population should double within five years, few areas in North America will be without Canada geese by 2000.
