Geese All Around Us
Ganders are male geese; goose is the name given to female geese. When talking about more than one goose we use the term “geese” – geese is plural for “goose”. A baby goose is called a “gosling”. A group of geese is called a “gaggle”.
Have you ever seen a gaggle of geese?
Geese are birds that are members of the waterfowl family, Anseriformes.
Geese make excellent pets and are often kept as pets by many people. They weed out the lawn, keep it short, and can act as a guardian dog. You will be followed around by them like a dog because these animals are extremely loyal.
There are about 30 species of geese that live worldwide.
