Loyal Goose Won't Leave Her Injured Mate And Patiently Waits Outside Of Wildlife Hospital
Geese are well-known for their loyalty. During 20 years of an average life span, they mate only once. When they reach maturity at the age of two, they find their mate and will be together ever since then, inseparable. Recently, a Canada goose has shocked the medics at New England Wildlife Center in Cape Cod. She came to the clinic and patiently waited for her mate, who underwent surgery.
“We turned to see that his mate had waddled up onto the porch and was attempting to break into our clinic!” staffers recounted. “She had somehow located him and was agitated that she could not get inside.”
“We opened the door and gave Arnold his flow-by oxygen in the doorway,” they explained. “His mate immediately calmed down and began to groom him through the door.”
