Don't fuck with a maternally enraged Canada Goose.

What started as a fishing trip to the lake ended with a visit to the emergency room for a 5-year-old boy who was attacked by a Canada goose last week.

Chase Standefer was walking near Jolie Island with his father Robert Price last Sunday afternoon when the goose attacked. Chase suffered a deep cut on the top of his head, but emergency room staff members would not stitch the cut because the goose is a wild animal, and bacteria from it could infect the cut. His mother Jean Price said the cut was deep and went all the way to the boy's skull. With the help of antibiotics, she said the cut is starting to heal.

She said Chase is now terrified of geese and is not too thrilled about going back to the lake. In an effort to encourage him to fish, Jean Price said Bass Pro Shop is donating some fishing equipment to her son.

1. So why is * still in the White House?
Why do geese hate America?

4. Reminds me of the Bay beach Wildlife Sanctuary in Green Bay.
Not the Amusement park, mind you.

6. I don't blame Canada--you have enough problems of your own

I remember seeing a TV show about a Canadian golf course that was infested with caribou!
