This is disgusting and shame on news media for missing the story. Why, again, must we read another fluff piece that publishes USDA Wildlife Services propaganda without bothering to even read it or appraise it, and uses loaded language such as "removed" and "euthanized" without understanding the level of associated bias? This is a cash-for-killing scheme and it has been exposed. Why not report it? The Sac Bee should be in line for a Pulitzer Prize for reporting on this hideous extermination agency that killed ~25,000 Canada geese for profit in 2012, not to mention millions of other animals of every kind imaginable--even dogs and cats.

Bannerman is the most despicable of the USDA liars, and her litany of nonsense keeps getting reported. She has said they USDA wants to "minimize stress" to these innocent geese; why, then, do USDA paid killers stuff the terrified geese and goslings into cramped plastic crates on the hottest days of the year, and truck them off for an hours-long journey to a slaughterhouse? That is, when the USDA isn't suffocating these waterfowl--who, because they hold their breath so well, suffer greatly and die a torturous, slow death by asphyxiation when gassed.

this is just so heinous and you will find that when people learn the truth, they are horrified. I think the article readership would jump and you'd have a hot story on your hands by reporting the real story. Look at what happened with the USDA's stealth massacre of 100 geese in Chattanooga last week--people were incensed to find out the truth, and WRCB said this was a top story for days.

Because people are not generally pleased to learn of this taxpayer-funded killing program.
