Thanks for the link Susan. At a place called Ulvik here in the west of
Norway they local council decided to thin out the Canada Goose population by
shooting a few birds. The bloke who was asked to undertake the deed managed
to shoot just one, after that he didn't stand a chance. As soon as he left
his car the geese swam out onto the fjord.

In the first published account of wild animals recognising individuals
of another species, the songbirds attacked people who had threatened
them in the past
