    I think a good contrast to this is when my dad saved a goose he accidentally snared in his fishing line. If flew straight across mid-cast.

    He had to reel it in while it honked and freaked out and and tried to bite him but after that, they were pals.

    Brought its goslings to see him on subsequent visits and everything.

        I have a dog, we got as a puppy. He’s a mutt. We named him Gus (after the mouse). His nickname became “Goose”.

        Once he grew up, we noticed his white markings on the underside of his neck (the rest of him is brindle) actually looks like the silhouette of a goose.
