    Default geese

    Went to a Nature London event this week. MNR officer speaking.

    800 000 Canada Geese in Ont. as of last Nov.
    200 000 harvested last Fall.
    Interesting ratio 1:4

    Not saying I am right but every fourth goose getting killed just doesn't sound right. If 25% get wiped out before they migrate over the border into the US you have to assume at the very least as many get shot down there. Can any species take that kind of harvest?

    How accurate can the data really be? Numbers don't seem at add up but I could be wrong

    Probably misread the q card. Gotta be either 1.8 million or 20,000 shot

    How do they determine that 200 000 are killed ? That doesn't make sense
