Default RE: Weird Question

I think AU poses a good question here. Think about it, geese come back year after year to the same pond/lake...or at least I've always heard that...Well suppose you get some and start raising them on your pond/lake. After 2 or three years, your flock of 30 starters has grown and now you have a relatively good size of WILD geese that you started, but let grow on their own. As long as he doesn't try to make them tame, then they aren't really tame, he just started some groups where there wasn't any before. Isn't that similar to releasing turkeys into an area and letting them reproduce and grow? I don't know if I would ever try this, but suppose you did own some land and wanted to turn it into a wetland? If he practiced conservation and let them grow for a year or two and get some coming back rather than releasing them and shooting them in the same day or season? If it was stretched out over time, would that be better?

Just something to think about....
