Canada Goose Crop Damage Abatement in South Dakota
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Canada geese (Branta canadensis) can cause considerable damage to crops during summer when geese are flightless. We evaluated the effectiveness of a program designed to alleviate crop damage on soybeans by Canada geese in South Dakota, USA.

Relationships Between Migration and Microbiome Composition and Diversity in Urban Canada Geese
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Microbiome analysis presents an opportunity to understand how urban environments affect avian physiology. For example, habitat use can affect microbiome diversity and composition, and hosts with more diverse gut microbiota are thought to be more ...

Composition of Eggs and Neonates of Canada Geese and Lesser Snow Geese [PDF]
The Auk, 2001 Abstract We collected eggs, neonates, and adults of Canada Geese (Branta canadensis interior) and Lesser Snow Geese (Chen caerulescens caerulescens) from Akimiski Island, Nunavut, during the 1996 breeding season. This was done to assess interspecific differences in egg composition, egg-nutrient catabolism, developmental maturity ...

Demographic consequences of translocation of overabundant Canada geese breeding in urban areas
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 Translocation is a common tool for managing nuisance Canada geese (Branta canadensis) in urban areas across North America. However, no previous research has assessed how translocation affects survival and philopatry at donor and release sites.
