Description
Native to tropical Africa, the Egyptian Goose was considered sacred in ancient Egyptian culture. More recently, in the early 1990s, Egyptian Geese were introduced into Florida when individuals escaped from private bird fancier’s collections, perhaps from hurricane-damaged enclosures, or through intentional releases. The bird’s population has exploded and is still growing not just in Florida, but also in Texas and western Europe. Egyptian Geese have become such a common site in parts of the Sunshine State, they have even eclipsed the ubiquitous domestic Muscovy Duck in some areas. Captured in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
