Have you ever heard of the Canadian "sky hare"? They are not literal rabbits, but a bird called the Canadian black goose.
The "Sky Rabbit" is huge, with fluffy and fluffy plumage, and a contrasting black and white color, which makes it look very cute, but don't be fooled by appearances, it is actually a very fierce and playful animal.
In Canada's cities, "sky hares" can be seen everywhere, they are reckless, pooping all over the ground, and even attacking people and aircraft, causing great distress and danger to local residents.
According to incomplete statistics, the current population of black geese in Canada is as high as 4.5 million, which is equivalent to the population of a small country.
The origin and characteristics of the "Sky Rabbit".
The reason why the Canadian black goose is called a "sky hare" is because its personality and behavior are very similar to that of the Australian hare, but I feel that they are more like a giant goose or duck.
Widely distributed in North America and Europe, the Canadian black goose was initially used as food or ornaments, and later appeared in large numbers in Canada with the exploitation and utilization of natural resources, and gradually flooded here.
With not enough predators and competitors in the area, the Canadian black goose began to breed and expand uncontrollably.
Not only that, but their reproductive ability and vitality are also amazing, and over the past few decades, the Canadian black goose has shown explosive growth, and it is said that the incubation period takes about 30 days, and each time it lays 4 to 6 eggs, it can live up to 24 years.
Every spring, they make a huge migration, thousands of kilometers away in search of new habitats and food sources, and encounter various dangers such as disease and predators.
Canadian black geese often eat a variety of nutritious foods, such as grass and aquatic plants, as well as some bird eggs and insects to provide themselves with enough and long-lasting energy.
Whenever farmers graze or harvest their crops, especially wheat seedlings, these Canadian geese flock to these places in large numbers to indulge in a hearty feast, but this also brings a huge loss to the people, although there have been some measures taken by the local people, but there are too many of them to have little effect.
As a large bird, the adult Canadian black goose spreads its wings and can reach a length of 1.5-1.8 meters, and its strong physique and agile physical fitness allow them to perform a variety of difficult maneuvers in the air, such as hovering, diving, tumbling, etc.
In addition, the Canadian black goose has a very sharp beak and claws, and a loud call, and can also sneak and swim in the water to avoid enemy attacks or find food.
Hazards and Strategies
Canadian geese are particularly fond of pooping in the air, and their droppings contain a lot of bacteria and parasites that can contaminate the soil and the environment, causing the spread and outbreak of disease.
It is said that the Canadian black goose can excrete 0.5-1 kilogram of feces per day, and if you add up the feces of 4.5 million Canadian black geese, how terrible the amount would be.
These feces not only affect people's quality of life and health, but also disrupt the ecological balance and aesthetics.
In addition to this, it is not alarmist that the Canadian black goose is very capable of flying and may collide with aircraft, causing aviation accidents.
In 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 flew on a mission and collided with a flock of birds when it flew to an altitude of about 900 meters, and many birds were caught in the engines on both sides.
The cause of the accident was the Canadian black geese, which directly failed their engines due to their large size.
In addition, Canadian black geese are very aggressive, they will attack any person or animal that threatens them, not only causing physical and psychological harm to people, but also causing panic and unrest in society.
Control the quantity, the means are all out
However, such a large number of creatures are a protected animal in Canada, which is really distressing, although the local government has approved some personnel to reduce their numbers by capturing and hunting, but it is expensive and inefficient.
There have also been attempts to change the behaviour of Canadian geese through education or punishment, including the use of sounds, lights, smells, etc., to make them feel fearful or disgusted and away from human areas.
There are also some people who will use water guns, rubber bullets and other weapons to attack the Canadian black geese, but they are too numerous, and they quickly adapt to this method, and they are no longer afraid of human attacks.
In fact, the Canadian black goose has a good use value, such as making their meat and feathers into food and clothing, bringing certain benefits to humans.
However, there is a question to be noted, although Canada is the second largest in the world, but its population is less than 40 million, how much can the 4.5 million Canadian black geese be eaten, and how much energy can be spent on making clothes?
Therefore, it is not easy for Canada to control this creature in a short period of time.
In general, the Canadian black goose is a very special animal, they bring a lot of trouble to humans, this phenomenon will definitely not appear in the mainland, what do you think of this phenomenon?
