Trapping and feeding goes a long way too.
The saying “You catch more flies with honey than vinegar” isn’t for nothing.
And don’t underestimate the humans ability to pet the fuck out of everything!
Animals love receiving pets and we, humans, love petting animals.
I’m team “All animals must receive a pet”
I wouldn’t fight a goose, but only lord knows how much would I fight to give the goose my headpats and to have it really tame around me.
I would bring my A-Game and armed to the teeth with peanuts, grapes, banana and pellets!
And this fight will be legendary taking many day and nights (actually, scratch the idea of taking nights. A healthy goose must have a healthy and undisturbed sleep)
What if I bring treats? Or maybe 5 kg of raw meat? What is the probability that I win?
