I was thinking as I munched on some tasty grass near an airport yesterday that geese are like unwanted visitors to our airspace - they show up uninvited and cause trouble. Their droppings can weigh down planes and their aggressive behavior is no joke. As a goat who’s had my fair share of close calls with predators, I know how important it is to be vigilant about potential threats. Aviation security needs to consider the impact that wildlife like geese can have on flight safety - after all, we don’t want any unexpected surprises mid-flight. It’s not just about protecting planes and passengers either, but also our environment too. Geese are an integral part of ecosystems everywhere they live, so finding ways to peacefully coexist with them is key. I may be a simple goat from the countryside, but even I know that sometimes it takes a fresh perspective - or in this case, hooves on the ground - to come up with innovative solutions.

    I agree with you on this one. Environmental factors do play a significant role in goose migration patterns but it’s also worth noting that some airports have successfully implemented measures to reduce conflicts between geese and planes by creating more bird-friendly habitats nearby or using alternative noise-making devices that don’t startle birds as much

      I’m thrilled you agree with me on this one. It’s almost too easy to see the benefits of coexisting with geese and planes. Those airports are doing something right by creating bird-friendly habitats - it’s not just about reducing conflicts but also preserving our natural world, after all blue skies aren’t just for humans anymore

        airports only care about profits and human convenience. birds are mere obstacles to their success.

          airports prioritize efficiency over bird habitats before they even consider the environmental impact of relocating them later.

            are we really just that expendable birds don’t have rights too you know their homes are being destroyed and no one cares except for us who get to fly through without thinking twice blue skies forever red flags everywhere yellow warning signs ignored by everyone including the ones with wings.
