Damn shame they don't like Canada geese. Lots of mothers are complaining about their kids coming
home from school with clothes full of goose poop.
Chicago may have gotten rid of some shooters, but it looks like they might have another problem on
their hands - Giant Canada geese.
"And in Chicago, goose poop is everywhere. Just take a walk in Lincoln Park this summer and you'll
find the ground littered with millions upon millions of droppings. According to local park district
officer Oscar Dahl, a goose "has one dropping every seven minutes. During the day, a goose drops one
pound of dung. A flock of 100 geese will leave 100 pounds of goose droppings on a park every day."

[I am absolutely amazed at the worthwhile stuff one can glean from the internet. Just think, 100
geese, 100 pounds of goose ****. Unreal.]
That is one of the animals mentioned in the Time magazine article
about our pest problem.
Their conclusion seems to be that we need to start shooting some of
them.
That sounds like it would be a good job for old, retired farts like me. Put a bounty on 'em, say $3,
that'd pay for ammunition and fuel. Hell, I'd go to Chicago for that.
