Energetics of the Canada Goose
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1982Measurements of food use in captive Canada geese (Branta canadensis interior) over 3to 4-day periods at constant temperatures showed that existence metabolism (Mkcal = kcal/bird/day) increased with drop in temperature (T = ?C) as: Mkcal = 511 4.983T in males at 10and 15-hour photoperiods and Mkcal = 487 4.709T in a female at 15-hour photoperiod.

GOOSE VIRUS HEPATITIS IN THE CANADA GOOSE AND SNOW GOOSE
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1971Seven Canada Goose goslings and one Snow Goose gosling died suddenly and were presented for diagnosis. Gross and microscopic lesions of hepatitis were observed in all birds. A virus was isolated in embryonated goose eggs which, on the basis of complement fixation and immunofluorescence tests, was identified as goose hepatitis virus.

Acute Copper Toxicosis in the Canada Goose
Avian Diseases, 1975Acute copper toxicosis resulted in Canada geese, Branta canadensis, following ingestion of copper sulfate at about 600mg/kg from a small man-made pond on a game farm. The lesions were those associated with copper toxicosis in other avian species. The primary pathologic change was necrosis and sloughing of the proventriculus and gizzard.

Nesting by a Yearling Canada Goose
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1971A free-flying Canada goose (Branta canadensis interior), known to be just under a year old, laid a clutch of four eggs at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center. At least half of the 2-year-old females nest at Patuxent, and almost all of the 3-year-olds nest. As far as we know, this is the first record of nesting by a yearling Canada goose.

Goose breeding and production in Canada.
CABI Reviews, 2006Abstract In the 1950s, goose breeders were severely restricted in their ability to benefit from the application of quantitative genetic methodologies and expertise in the skilful practice of husbandry due to lack of scientific knowledge on the subject matter.

Arizona Birds, 2008
In 2004 the American Ornithologist’s Union officially split North American White-cheeked Geese into two species: Canada Goose, Branta canadensis and Cackling Goose, B. hutchinsii (Banks et al., 2004). The largest recognized subspecies of Canada Goose is the Giant Canada Goose, B. c. maxima. Here we present some ways to separate typical B. c. maxima and
