Watch a Wild Whirlpool Suddenly Suck Down Pond Water and Nearly Spurl Down Two Geese

On this particularly beautiful day, two Canadian geese were out on this pond like every other day. Only this wasn’t like any other day. As they were swimming, they found a whirlpool that had formed in the water. And there is a possibility that they might get sucked in. 

Geese Sighting in Canada

The new YouTube video posted at the bottom of this blog post comes to us from Canada. Where we see two Canadian geese that are gliding along this river. The video was filmed and uploaded by the YouTube page Christina Anne M. This channel has received more than 17 million views across all of her videos. Christina is a wildlife enthusiast who takes videos of animals such as snow geese, Canadian geese, owls, and more. 

Mr. and Mrs. Goosey Vs. Whirlpool

The YouTube poster comically labeled this video: Mr. and Mrs. Goosey Vs. Whirlpool, and for good reason. It looks, though, as if these two geese might be together. And as fate would have it, being together means that they will face life’s ups and downs. And in this case, there are certainly downs!

At the start of this video, we see a river in Canada that has a small funnel of water that is headed straight down. This is called a whirlpool. According to Live Science, they describe whirlpools as the following. 

“Whirlpools are phenomena that form when water moving in two different directions comes into contact with each other and interacts in an unusual way. They can’t continue to travel at the same speed and direction through each other, so they are forced to turn and swirl around each other.”

As this whirlpool is traveling at fast speeds, we suddenly see two Candian geese that are swimming right by it. However, we can see that they are a bit interested in what this phenomenon is. 

One of the geese swims right by, and the other goose is a little more interested to see how close he can get to it. At 34 seconds, we see the goose get so close that its bottom half seems to get right by the hole; however, his body gets spun a little as if it would have fallen straight in! But, lucky for them, they both got away!

Goose Facts

There are 29 different species of goose. The size of these geese would largely depend on their species. Geese can weigh anywhere from 1.5-8 kilograms (3.3-17 pounds) and reach up to 60-120 centimeters (23.6-50 inches) in length.

Geese are omnivores who eat things such as grass, seeds, berries, and aquatic plants. And because they are omnivores, they will also eat things such as insects and fish.
