You can't use Canadian Geese as the example. They are uniquely assholes among a lot of larger birds and attack people regularly.

I don't know about other places but growing up in Canada you learn to give those a wide berth if you seed them anywhere near a walking path.

I suspect they're more grumpy in Canada. Whenever I see them in the US they're docile and generally just avoid people.

No, I've had one of these cold melonfarmers run at me with pure malevolence in its eyes, right here in California. I ran the hell away. Reminded me too much of Jurassic Park.

They also taste delicious, incidentally. One of the few truly guilt-free meats.
