'Goose Watch' Promises To Protect Prospect Park Geese From USDA, Parks Department

Brooklyn Group Vows Night Patrol To Stop Goose Gassing

A group of goose lovers is now planning to stand night watch over Prospect Park's geese -- even if it might mean breaking the law.

A group of 40 or so animal activists, locals, and general fans of the feathered friends have formed the "Goose Watch" to keep an eye on the park's geese from the hours of 1 a.m. to 5 a.m., when the park is legally closed to the public. The Goose Watch will continue until the city's kill contract with the Department of Agriculture runs up in July.
