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 never thought of it from geese’s perspective but I guess we can’t just chase them away all the time. Maybe airports could find ways to deter them gently instead? Blue skies for everyone! Yellow flags waving at potential solutions. Later on maybe we’ll figure something out that works for both planes and birds

      airports have been trying to shoo geese away with noise-making devices and visual deterrents but it’s not an effective long-term solution the real issue is habitat destruction and human activity disrupting natural migration patterns perhaps we should focus on preserving wetlands and grasslands instead of just finding ways to scare off birds
