COCCIDIA OF ALEUTIAN CANADA GEESE
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1981Fecal samples from 122 captive and 130 free-ranging Aleutian Canada geese (Branta canadensis leucopareia) were examined for oocysts of coccidia. Free-ranging geese sampled on the spring staging ground near Crescent City, California were infected with Eimeria hermani, E. truncata, E. magnalabia, E. fulva, E. clarkei and Tyzzeria parvula.

Lead Poisoning in Canada Geese in Delaware
Avian Diseases, 1967483 geese died at the Bombay Hook Wildlife Refuge between November 1965 and April 1966. All but one goose had enough lead in the liver to indicate lead poisoning as the cause of death. Delaware waterfowl biologists have estimated that perhaps as many as 2000-4000 geese succumbed to what appears to be lead poisoning during the winter of 1965-66.

The Wilson Bulletin, 2004
Abstract Geese are normally herbivorous. I report an instance of Canada Geese (Branta canadensis) feeding on alkali flies (Ephydra hians) at hypersaline Mono Lake, California. The bout was brief and possibly represented exploratory behavior by inexperienced birds.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1964
This study was designed to determine what percent of 1-, 2-, and 3-year-old wild geese (Branta canadensis moffitti) nest in a population of limited size; to compare results with similar information from captive flocks; and, by applying the breeding-age data obtained, to determine the percent of breeding geese in the Flathead Valley population.

An Epizootic of Aspergillosis in Canada Geese
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1968An epizootic in Canada geese (Branta canadensis) occurred at the Swan Lake National Wildlife Refuge, Chariton County, Missouri, in 1966. Approximately 2,000 geese died during the first 18 days of October. Losses were localized and did not spread to 75,000 other geese on the refuge.

A HEMATOLOGICAL STUDY OF SNOW, BLUE, AND CANADA GEESE
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1971Hematological values, including erythrocyte counts, hematocrit and hemoglobin values, and total and differential leucocyte counts, were measured at approximately 30-day intervals during a calendar year in adult snow (Chen caerulescens), blue (Chen caerulescens) and Canada geese (Branta canadesis interior).

Canada Geese and the Epidemiology of Avian Influenza Viruses
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2010Canada geese (Branta canadensis) are numerous, highly visible, and widely distributed in both migratory and resident populations in North America; as a member of the order Anseriformes, they are often suggested as a potential reservoir and source for avian influenza (AI) viruses.
