Geese Genocide on Maine Beach

"Maine geese that befouled beach are killed

State officials said 18 geese whose droppings plagued an Oakland, Maine, beach have been euthanized. The Portland Press Herald reported Tuesday that town leaders rounded up the Canada geese and sent them to state officials in the hope of relocating them. State officials said an overabundance of geese in the state meant they had to be killed. The town called the state office of the federal Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Service after people complained about goose waste on a boat launch. Town Manager Peter Nielsen said the waste turned the beach ‘‘from a spot that’s pleasant place to be to one that is not.’’

Better watch where you goose-step then.
