Nice! The homeless will have Christmas goose all year round!
Excellent idea!
Some of the comments are brilliant:
Why not capture the geese and takr ethem elsewhere and release them. Killing them is a terrible thing. Geese are one of GODS CREATURES put hiere for our enjoyment.
They are put here for are enjoyment along with gravy and potatoes.

Got no objection to feeding the poor. But wild goose would sell for A LOT of money to New York restaurants.
How come this? I really don't get it.

Yeah, the idea of hunting wild game comes with a lot of baggage.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I haven't got the neck to try a goose pun.
But goose always leaves a fowl taste in my mouth anyway.

It's actually illegal to sell any meat that doesn't come from a farm in the U.S. If you hunt, you can eat the animals yourself, but you can't sell them.

It's legal here, though I believe the hunter has to register for a "Game dealing licence". Of course, our laws are generally less restrictive than the US...

What the fuck? So you can't buy game in the US?
I feel sorry for the fish then. That's animal discrimination.
