Description

The Domestic Goose (Anser anser domesticus or Anser cygnoides domesticus) is a gray goose kept by humans for poultry, eggs, and down feathers. Males are distinguished by their protective behavior towards their mates and offspring; they are taller and larger than females, and they have longer necks. The colors of the plumage vary, and they are either completely covered in white feathers or have dark brown tones. Their heavy weight affects their ability to fly, but most breeds are capable of flight. As the most aggressive of all poultry, the Domestic Goose has been used as a watch animal and guard for centuries.

Anseriformes, or waterfowl, are an order of aquatic birds that include ducks, geese, and swan. Since these birds are frequently aquatic, many Anseriformes have webbed feet, are medium to large in size, and are primarily herbivorous, but will forge on occasion for insects, mollusks, or small fish.
