Duck, duck: Goose in Wisconsin reunited with family thanks to efforts of police sergeants
CALEDONIA, Wis. (WFRV) – A police sergeant in Wisconsin got quite the 'odd' call from their colleague leading to a domesticated goose being reunited with its partner.
According to the Caledonia Police Department, the call entailed this question:
'Hey Sgt. G., what do we do about a goose?'

The post joked that the normal response would be to 'tell him to not hit his head on the canopy, or find two ducks and play a game.'
Since it was a work call, the Sergeant 'facepalmed' and asked for more information, learning that a family cornered the goose in their yard, since it seemed domesticated and wanted to protect it from potential predatory animals.
An additional Sergeant responded and took it into 'custody' before calling, Sergeant G., who provided suggestions. Sergeant McDonald took the goose to the Eco-Justice Center, who said they had two geese that were recently re-homed.
