[@wildlifegardenssydney7492]

@@ac4185 The night that the geese saved Rome It all started in the year 390 BC when Rome found itself at odds with a Gallic tribe known as the Senones, led by the fierce warrior Brennus. On July 18, Rome suffered a crushing defeat in the Battle of Allia, leading to the subsequent Gallic Siege of Rome. According to Livy and Plutarch, the Gauls managed to infiltrate Rome, primarily due to the Romans' lack of vigilance, except for a single fortress on the Capitoline Hill. And here is where the geese come into the story. The Capitoline Hill was the home of the Temple of Juno Moneta, which housed the sacred geese of Juno, the Roman queen of the gods. In this period of distress, as the Gauls crept up the hill in the dead of night, aiming to silently overtake the fortress, an unlikely source of alarm came not from the Roman guards on duty but from the sacred geese of Juno. Despite the famine that had forced the Romans to ration their food supply, the sacred geese were well-fed due to their religious significance. Vigilant and alert, the geese sensed the stealthy intruders and started squawking and flapping their wings wildly. The noise roused Marcus Manlius Capitolinus, a former consul, who immediately sprung into action. With his swift response, the Romans were able to repel the invaders, and the Capitoline Hill remained in Roman hands. The geese's role in preventing the Gauls from overtaking the fortress earned them a privileged position in Roman society. They were given special attention during festivals and feasts, and golden statues were erected in their honor. Meanwhile, Marcus Manlius, the defender of the Capitoline Hill, gained great honor and respect among his fellow Romans. He was often referred to as "the savior of Rome," earning him a place in the annals of Rome's greatest heroes. However, his tale is a story for another day.

[@AW-pz3qc]

Guard geese are worth their weight in gold! When we moved to a small farm intruders would visit during the night, previous owner wasn't a nice type so they would steal from him during the wee hours...our solution was to get some guard geese. They are quiet when everything is OK but stir them up and all hell breaks loose. They honk and scream and will attack/bite/beat with their wings if/when necessary and of course, their reputation is well known. One person was bitten on the arms as they attempted to hold a goose and all the while they were being beaten and bruised around the upper body by those huge beating wings. I was able to lift the goose from the situation with not a bite, but it's feathers were well and truly ruffled and the noise from that flock during this whole episode was deafening as the others joined in. That person 'never' went near the geese again and the bruising lasted for more than a week. Geese make good friends too and will always let you know if something is not as it should be.

My parents and grandparents all warned me whenever we visited farms in NZ to watch out for the guard geese. At the time the geese were bigger than me so I was scared and clung to the adults legs or hid behind them. Years later, at the ponds in Centennial Park in Sydney we saw lots of them up close. I warned my children to look and not touch and certainly not to bother them. Geese are large birds with so much character. They do need a pond to be happy and have their needs met (at prison). Some ideas. In a central area of the prison (not on the perimeter). The prison could grow most of their salad, fruit and veggies with the fertility from their geese poop. Make and sell compost, with in bed worm farms. With the no dig method of growing there would be no need for metal, or posts (so no concerns about shanks). Prisoners on merit systems could work in the gardens. Learn permaculture and skills too.

[@Wizzz28]

We used to have Geese. They are really territorial & protective which makes them ideal for guarding anything. Makes sense they are more cost efficient than dogs. Geese are very loud & aggressive when they get upset when something or someone invades their space or upsets them. Their nature is to all attack at the same time. I've seen our Geese attack & chase. Nobody can outrun Geese because they can run fast & fly. Plus when they are chasing & attacking they will go into buildings, houses, pubs etc. When our Geese attacked - one would jump on the person's shoulders & peck their head, two two jump up & peck the person's arms & two would peck the person's legs. The rest would follow running, flying at the person & pecking them. The noise they all made was quite deafening. It makes complete sense why years ago people used to keep them to guard their homes & pubs. Geese can be your best friend or worst enemy because they never forget. If you ever get surrounded by geese don't make eye contact or any sudden movements or loud noises. Just walk away slowly & quietly & speak very softly out loud. If they were going to attack you they already would of done it

Prisoner tries to escape Geese : 🗿

[@cheetah_zs]

I live in Santa Catarina since birth and I never knew this, what a found

[@nikolaipetros2411]

If you thought you were going to escape... geese again :D

[@rafathebroken9083]

It's brilliant concept of guarding

[@sachiko-k6o]

We have geese. They are so territorial. If they see people, they quack so loudly. Even if they see you everyday, you can't really stop them from quacking if they see you.

[@shadabfariduddin6784]

What an innovative way!

[@andreim841]

Not really...Romans used to do this 2000 years ago :)

[@mrconfusion87]

More like tried and tested! 🤣🤣🤣

[@sharifrancis9826]

Considering the horror stories I've heard about geese from my mother, they've made a smart decision. 😂

[@noahkafuracao1924]

In Brazil, Polish immigrants families used geese to protect their houses like guard dogs

[@DontForgetOldKolobok]

In Brazil, the geese chase you!

[@liviarosa1981]

Unfortunately, geese are not so common throughout the whole country. But we know to never mess up with them.

[@The_Ballo]

I always suspected Canada was a prison

[@qurangreen7041]

Imagine trying to escape prison and a goose that sounds like Immotan Joe yells "HE'S ESCAPING"

[@gamingnerdgirlz]

Geese make more noise than dogs. Let’s keep them. Prisoners: nope. Don’t mess with geese.

[@littlejoe9381]

Those geese had a look on their faces like, “I wish someone would try to escape from here. “ 🤨

[@VoidHalo]

Geese are vicious. I asked my 5 year old niece what sound a goose makes and she goes "HISSSSSS." Because she's only ever heard them hiss at her lol.

[@CPG00]

Geese are vicious ruthless warriors who never back down.

[@jt414]

My great-grandmother had a goose for a guard dog. They naturally make wonderful guards!

[@CitizenKahne1992]

All the new prisoners think they’ll be the one to escape. Then they meet the geese.

[@rissikesthiyagarajah2205]

Imagine getting re-arrested because of a goose

[@Ari-mo8qo]

I'm from Michigan a neighboring state in the US to Canada. Canadian geese are mean. I went to a bird sanctuary as apart of a biology experience program, and the other waterfowl where ok when they calmed down, but the Canadian geese where mean even when you where helping them and they calmed down they would still bit your arms long sleeves where needed. The swans where adorable though when you held them correctly, and they calmed down. They even gave one of the care takers a neck hug! Still all creatures need to be treated with respect and caution the swans while being wild birds where handled properly.

😂 I'm Canadian.. Borrow some of ours! Nobody messes with the Cobra Chickens!!

[@mrpopinfresh-w6h]

i had a vietnam vet who lived next door to me and he had geese and i asked him why he had them and he said in Vietnam they used them to protect a area he was an Australian vet

[@LiloDaCosta]

Some people also use geese as guard dogs at their houses. They are no joke.

[@TheStigma]

Let's all just take a moment to be thankful for geese not being any larger :)

[@garlandgarrison3739]

Imagine you're seconds away from freedom, then you just hear a "honk"

[@inferno]

they remember the trauma of being chased down so they dont even try to escape

[@wickedbird1538]

😮😮imagine telling your friends you got an additional 5 years because you got caught by a goose while trying to escape.

[@moss534]

When my son was little he would have those type of geese following him at the park and he would say "look mama I'm the leader of the snobby goose army!" These geese take me back 😂 I can't believe they use them as a jail alarm system crazy but.guess it works!

[@smolsheriff]

As a Canadian, we all know to never mess with the geese. I guess same goes across the world 😂

[@sempergumby8734]

My geese alert me before my guard dog can react at my mechanic shop...

[@khoi83]

0:51 the look HAHHAHA

[@pablitomita]

BAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@CyberBeep_kenshi]

Captain Goose.

[@ANTINATALIST_lewis]

He's watching you, yes you

[@pierspim4341]

The geese and the prisoners have one thing in common: they are both jailbirds.

[@ObiwanSherlockClousseau]

Prisoner: I fear no man. But that thing, it scares me.

[@Phoca_Vitulina]

This is weirdly wholesome, but please at least do veterinary care as well if they need it

[@lanabyk8012]

The geese dont even know they are in prison. What a life!

[@mrconfusion87]

They don't know and don't care cuz they rule the grounds! 🤣🤣🤣

[@JandyCZ]

I am one of few bagpipes player in my country. The guy who is hand-making these bagpipes has exactly these suckers around and let me tell you, they are way more intimidating in person than they are on screen.

[@Sikawofie_Montana]

We had 4 gees in our house in Ghana/Africa 🇬🇭,my Dad had a big Poultry Farm as well....Never mess with a Gees😂They can be ruthless sometimes

[@TheSouthIsHot]

I live near a small lake and can hear the geese fly over my house on their way to a water landing or recent take-off. They are very chatty birds!!!

[@NickMate]

The algorithm has fluked and given us a good suggestion for once.

[@zerogrey3798]

Geese are not only loud , but mean as hell. Many years ago there was a show, I can't remember the name of it but it highlighted odd things, new scientific advances etc. One of the episodes showed companies using geese as security because they're both loud and very aggressive.

[@hurricaneb6243]

I remember seeing Geese as a child on my way to buy newspapers, thinking if this is gonna be a good day or not. But now, as an adult, I understand how silly it is. Ain't no way I'm taking the boss battle route, I'm bigger now, so I can take the long way around.
