I’d like to report a hazard…. These things are vicious and I’m curious what other obscure things you’ve run across

Can confirm they are vicious!
When I was with a previous company, we had a remediation site along the Hudson River. There was one day when 30-40 geese decided that it was theirs for the day. We literally packed up and went home the harassment was so bad.

Just kick 'em if they get too close.

The only mean thing to come out of Canada.

I have been attacked by a goose before! Fun times. Not really. I was scared and was running away haha. It chased me!

We have a family of racoons in our back lot. Our Maintenance guy traps them and sets them free in the woods.

In our city it is the wild turkeys. My dad used to work in maintenance for our city library and the postal carrier would get chased all the time by turkeys trying to deliver to one of the branch libraries. Last I knew it was illegal to even feed them in town due to there are so many now.

The company I work for now gets paid lots of money to put things in place to keep these things from destroying wetland areas that we newly plant, lol
we used to have about 20 of them that would come to the fire house like clock work during feeding time, was always pretty cool when they had the fledglings in tow we had what were classed as non migratory geese that were around all year long.
We have problems with ducks, Many people are afraid of them and they poop everywhere!
The geese were a nuissance in the community I reside in vecayse the ither households would feed them and then they would deficate everywhere. They were eventually humanely relocated.
