Domestic geese are fatter than natural geese because when domesticated, people have chosen large geese, domestic geese can weigh up to 10kg while wild swan geese are only 3.5kg and or gray geese are 4.1kg. Although stout, domestic geese can basically fly. The earliest records of domesticated geese suggest they were raised for fattening and sacrifice, but in Roman times geese were also bred for eggs and bred for specific traits such as calm personalities. or for beautiful, luxurious fur. It was not until 390 BC that geese were raised to become a guardian animal in Roman life. It is said that once at the temple of the goddess Juno, there was a flock of geese, they were considered sacred animals and no one dared to eat them. In 390 BC, Rome was besieged by the Gauls, and late one night, Gaul soldiers sneaked up the Capitoline hill where the temple of the goddess Juno was to surprise Rome. The dogs raised by the inhabitants of Rome were not alarmed because they were easily bribed with fresh meat. With the exception of the geese, they immediately noticed the unusual disturbance and began to call loudly. Thanks to the cry of the geese, the Roman soldiers were awakened and successfully defended their city. Since this event, the geese are considered heroes, sacred animals, and an annual festival is held – dressed in purple and yellow geese costumes and teasing them. Dogs because of “greed for food” forgot their guard duty. Goose has aggressive behavior Aggressive geese – this behavior is related to their size – a large and clumsy bird. Geese are difficult to hide when threatened, so they will display aggressive and aggressive attitudes to avoid danger. Goose tolerates extreme weather well, even when it snows, it still likes to be outside grooming. The ability to protect themselves well plus preferring to be outside rather than indoors, geese are often raised by farmers with flocks of chickens, ducks and geese to protect themselves. Day vision (nearly blind at night) and hearing of geese are extremely sharp, they can sense movements long before humans realize. While most birds do not respond to things they see in favor of humans, geese are the opposite. It emits a loud and aggressive sound – these are ideal sentinel and protective attributes. Geese are also territorial, they know where their home is and protect it. Not many domesticated birds are territorial, and fewer are aggressive in the face of intruders. Goose is more aggressive during mating season or when it is with “wife” and cubs. The male goose will immediately stretch his neck to its full length, turn his head to look at you with one eye and be ready to attack, no matter who the threat is. The goose’s protective behavior for mates and young remains unchanged from that of its wild ancestors. The goose lives with one mate for life and it is very loyal to its owner, not forgetting the people and other animals it lives with. Geese are not affected by food, no matter how good the food is. Therefore, many farmers in the world prefer to keep geese to guard the house and protect other animals than dogs. Vegetarian goose Unlike chickens and ducks, which prefer insects, crickets and protein-rich foods, geese prefer to eat plants, very voracious but all plants. When combining raising geese with suitable plants, they will eat all the weeds around and absolutely do not touch agricultural products. Goose has a good memory, it remembers people, distinguishes who is who by shape, gestures and voice, it also knows which chicken and dog friends are next to him and remembers situations and surroundings. around. So what is unusual, disturbing even small, strangers appear, they will welcome with cries and aggressive attitude. *In 1986, the US military purchased 750 geese from German farmers to protect their military bases. Or in Dumbarton, Scotland, the famous whiskey company Ballantine used geese to guard during 1959 until 2012 when it was replaced with security cameras. These geese are called “Scotch Watch”.
