POPSCanada goose-kill in United States In 1990 the Garden State had 28,000 resident Canada geese. By 1999, the population had ballooned to 82,000. New Jersey has the highest concentration of resident Canada geese. "In the last 60 years they've rapidly increased in numbers and they're very successful in breeding. They have five, six, seven young and they have no enemies so no animals kill them and so they're spreading wildly." Typically, the geese are protected under The Migratory Birds Convention, a shared treaty between Canada and the United States. "A Canada goose could not be captured, harassed, shot, wounded, killed or collected with out a permit," Carol Bannerman, a spokeswoman from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Service told CTV.ca." Ya, da permit, eh?
