The domesticated goose is one nasty animal. Very territorial. I was at a friend’s house when I was in high school, and I went outside to have a cigarette. They had a goose and it didn’t like me one bit. It started honking at me, then it put its head all the way don to the ground and charged! Once it got next to me, it lifted up its head and pecked me right in the knee. I did land a kick, but it got out of range fast and started honking and flapping its wings. It basically backed me up against the house and I had to wait for my buddy’s brother (the owner of the goose) to come and put it back in its pen.
