Interesting Facts About Geese
Here are some interesting facts about Geese:
What is the Lifespan of a Goose?
In the wild, the average lifespan of geese ranges from 10 to 20 years, with Canadian geese being known for their longevity as the longest-living waterfowl species. However, the exact lifespan of geese is highly influenced by their environment and living conditions. Geese can thrive and live longer if they inhabit a suitable habitat, but their lives can be cut short if they encounter predators or hunters.
In captivity, geese have the potential to live much longer. When provided with proper care, domesticated geese can live up to 25 years. Remarkably, there have been instances of barnacle geese reaching at least 30 years and four months of age in captivity.
Their ability to live a lengthy life when well looked after adds to their appeal as popular pets for households.
