Alliance For Animals

Make a few calls and you could help the geese.

There’s a misconception by many that killing geese is the only way to manage conflicts between people and wildlife.

It isn’t.

Communities across the country have successfully used humane, nonlethal approaches such as habitat modification, egg addling, public education, and other long-term strategies to reduce conflicts without killing healthy animals.

Madison has expanded some nonlethal methods over the years, but lethal removal remains part of the plan.

If you would like to see Madison move toward fully humane goose management, please respectfully contact the Madison Parks Department and ask them not to kill the geese this year.

Public pressure truly matters. Please contact them and share to help raise awareness. 💛

Most Madison residents have no idea this still happens.

Each summer, the Madison Parks may round up and kill geese living in the park system using taxpayer-funded USDA Wildlife Services operations.

While some nonlethal methods have expanded over the years, lethal removal still remains part of a management plan that is now more than a decade old.

We believe it’s past time for Madison to fully embrace humane, nonlethal goose management.

If you would like to help, please respectfully contact the Madison Parks Department and ask them not to kill the geese this year.
