This website is "The coalition to prevent the destruction of Canada Geese" which mysteriously "disappeared" much like the 400 Prospect Park Geese. There is no information on the group or any of its members.

She posts the USDA's report, "Ridding the Sky of Geese" and notes that the current plan by the USDA is to anhilate 1 MILLION geese on the East Coast. While we are struggling for our beloved Prospect Park Geese, we also intend to take this to Washington.

Certainly, the harassment and terrorization cannot be good for ANY geese or mallards at Prospect Park right now -- especially those who cannot fly. Parents trying to raise newly hatched goslings are incapable of escape.

Nothing should operate in a vacumn.

That is highly unusual for Canada geese who are among the most protective animals on earth towards their young and whose goslings enjoy high survival rates.

In addition to the dousing with oil some weeks back that deprived the developing embroys of oxygen, there is the daily "Goose harassment" with Border Collies that has chased this family of geese from the lake area where they would normally raise young and sent them into "hiding" in thickets and bushes.

All signs and evidence points far more towards human harassment killing off these innocent goslings than anything "nature" could come up with.

We don't after all, blame nature when humans throw their dogs or babies down garbage chutes.

And nature does not deserve the blame here.
