As far as I can tell, Will Rodgers never said "I never met a goose, that I didn't like"!

...but he did say:

“If you feel the urge, don't be afraid to go on a wild goose chase. What do you think wild geese are for anyway?”

Tried them, both wild and domestic, cooked a number of different ways. Can't say I liked it a whole lot, still prefer chicken or turkey.

Some younger Canadian adults call them "cobra chickens " for their aggressive attacks on other birds. Here in the Toronto area the Parks department has hired border collie dogs ( and their handlers ) to scare away the Canada geese, who are not harmed, only chased by the dogs. JimB.

A nearby town used cut-outs of dogs, driven into the ground at a small pond near the dam where there was a town beach. They worked!
