See, that’s why I do not mess with geese. They don’t care, no fear at all. Lost countless golf balls to these creatures!

Go get attacked by one and find out. Make sure it's a mom protecting her eggs. You're gonna have a bad time.

So kick the stupid thing. Grab its neck and swing it around. Too easy

A goose bit me on the ass when I was seven. Wasn't a great time.

Not seven anymore. Just kick it, birds are weak to blunt attacks

Yes, under most circumstances, a human can easily 1v1 a goose... buut, under some circumstances, a goose can 1v1 a commercial jet engine to a draw. But anyway, I don't think that's the point here.

In goose-world, pretty much every living thing will eat their eggs/young. They're just terrified. So, killing one or grievously injuring it just because it's afraid of you and despite the fact that they're pretty harmless would a shitty thing to do when walking-on is just easier.

They have hundreds a tiny razor sharp teeth. A bite from a goose will fuck you up. My sister got bit on the finger when we were kids, really hurt and cut her up. Geese are inhabited by demons.
