This goose has adopted my parents, and is attempting to establish residency in their cabin. We suspect it is domestic and escaped from its coop. It’s a seasonal cabin and they’re planning to close up soon. What should they do? Central Ontario. Near Bracebridge.

UPDATE: A neighbor of theirs is set up for chickens, so could accommodate a goose. And shortly after making that arrangement an ad appeared in the community message board. So the goose is going home.

    That looks kind of like a Pilgrim goose. We had one. It was really nice. They will generally go home at night. It may just be visiting them during the day, especially if they are nice to it or feed it, then going home at night. I would ask around to see if anyone is missing a goose. When it’s time to close up the cabin they should just leave. The goose will likely go home.
