Map

The map of the distribution of Canadian Geese does not include Eastern Canada. I edited it to include it. Map of Canadian Geese distribution in North America

Nor does it include, for example, the Netherlands and Japan, which are mentioned in the text: Canada Geese have reached western Europe naturally, as has been proved by ringing recoveries. The birds are of at least the subspecies parvipes, and possibly others. Canada Geese are also found naturally on the Kamchatka Peninsula in eastern Siberia, eastern China, and throughout Japan.
Greater Canada Geese have also been widely introduced in Europe, and have established feral populations in Great Britain, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia.
Since the map is supposed to include feral populations, it might be time to either change the text or the map depending on which one is right. 87.78.134.22 21:17, 12 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Japan is habitat of Cackling Geese B. h. leucopareia but not Canada Geese habitat.[1][2]

Map Question

Is the map accurate I live in the southern U.S. and I would testify under oath that these pest are around for the whole year not just summer it is so bad that in some places in the middle of summer you can't go outside without stepping in their "gifts" ChrisLamb 18:56, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the range map should be rethought. Tallahassee, FL, for instance, is well-known to have a year-round population of Canada Geese (who especially enjoy defecating on FSU's intramural fields). What is the source for these range maps? 38.106.100.57 (talk) 14:17, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Brownsea Island recording

Are we sure this is a pure recording of geese and only geese? I think I hear seagulls... Blythwood (talk) 09:17, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

English spelling changes

Since it's called the Canada goose. I think the spellings should be changed to Canadian spellings. LittleJerry (talk) 22:30, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That's not how it works here at Wikipedia. Articles remain in the variety of English they were started in. The sole exception to this rule is if they are about a subject restricted to an area with a particular variety of English (i.e. an article about a Canadian town would be written in Canadian English). Since this is about a goose which is found across much of the world now (an area with multiple "English varieties" -- Canadian English, American English, Australian English, British English -- it should stay as it started. And the variety it was started in was Australian English. Sorry! MeegsC (talk) 22:53, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
