u/repeatwad 5d ago

In the year 1534 there were 3 explorers who discovered a great piece of land. They had no idea what to name it. So they each decided to pick a letter and go from there. The first explorer said "C" eh, the second said "N" eh, and the last said "D" eh. That's how the great Canada was named

It was the year 1535. Get your shit squared.

7

u/IrrationalDesign 6d ago

Yes, but their naming conventions follow the grammar of being named after a person, not the grammar of being named after a country (or being named for stemming from a country). Therefore: Canada Goose, not Canadian Goose.

u/manyhippofarts 6d ago

But is a Canada goose from Canada actually Canadian?

Canadian Canada Geese are Canadian, yeah. There are American Canada Geese as well, which means a Canadian Canada Goose can move to the US and get babies that are Canadian-American Canada Geese.

This actually isn't true but I've seen it before. They were first described by Carl Linnaeus, in his 18th century Systema Naturae (aka where we get binomial nomenclature from.) He gave them the scientific name Branta canadensis, meaning a goose that is black (burnt) and from Canada.

u/CapitalistLion-Tamer 6d ago

No theyā€™re not. Thatā€™s a myth. Thereā€™s no evidence of any ornithologist named John Canada ever existing. Itā€™s called a Canada goose because thatā€™s what its Latin name means (roughly ā€œBlack Goose from Canada)

Canadian geese are protected by federal and state laws:

Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA): This federal law protects Canada geese, their eggs, and nests.

State laws: Some states, like Florida, have adopted the MBTA to protect Canada geese. For example, in Ohio, Canada geese are protected by both the MBTA and state law.

u/Bored_Amalgamation 6d ago

I live in Ohio and the geese are everywhere there's water nearby through the summer. They're about to leave in the next few weeks. They slowly cross busy streets because fuck you. We get 1-2 nests on my company's roof. It's a patio that has a 5ft raised flower bed that they nest in. But during the summer we like to go to the roof to get high have lunch. So youll be sitting there while a federally and state protected birb stares you down, judging you like a winged cat, while you hit the pen eat lunch. We had to fire a maintenance worker for destroying a nest.

You can move nests before eggs are laid. Put up barriers. And some other pre-egg shit. But after those eggs are down, there's not much you can do expect syare back at these Canuck mfers

Oh man. My old buddy Raimo - he was just joking around, not a vicious bone in his body; we're walking around a lake and he picks up a rock and - not even trying to - tossed it right at a goose sitting there, killing it instantly with a head shot.

We all fall around him "whoa dude wtf!" blah blah, sorta happy (I guess?) for him or whatever.

He's stricken. Won't move. Things get real quiet. BOOM! Raimo dives into the lake, fully clothed, swims out to the dead bird and swims back with it. We're elated again; "yeah, good on you man, awesome!", thinking I don't know what.

"We need to eat it." he said.

Understand that we weren't a bunch of hoodlums trying to kill local wildlife, we were a bunch of hoodlums trying to drink beer and find the next place to chill and not eat huge dead birds. Especially dead birds from a lake with known toxins.

Anyway, we went back to our squat and Raimo ate that dead bird, bless him. I declined.

Funny thing is, youā€™re technically correct. This literally happened in Allen, Texas in April of this year.

Local police got involved and basically had to tell the community ā€œyeah itā€™s weird, but they arenā€™t a protected species so itā€™s technically not illegal.ā€

Her name got out and the cops convinced her to voluntarily give the geese back so people would leave her alone.
