Driver ran over a goose

A sincere fuck you to the person who ran over a goose on W Commodore. Instead of slowing down, instead of stopping like every single other driver did, they plowed right through a family of Canada geese in an act of either mindless cruelty or sheer, horrible stupidity.

I saw it happen in my rearview mirror. And like a coward, the driver didn’t even come back to see if the poor thing was dead. They stopped briefly, and then just drove off.

I checked instead. It was instant, at least. I’m pretty sure it was one of the parents, probably the female based on size. The male kept coming back into the road while the juveniles waited on the shoulder. He was calling for her, waiting for her to join them. He didn’t want to leave her even with other cars driving by (cars that, I might add, went around the dead goose in the road, and slowed down so they wouldn’t hit the male). I moved her off the street and set her on the grass.

I just had to share this somewhere. It made me sick at heart to see it. I don’t understand what leads people to do this
