    They actually can’t walk or take off on the ground because their legs are too far back. It can be a pretty big problem if one gets on land somehow!

    They’re commonly referred to as cobra chickens and the majority of Canadians hate them with a firey passion.

    Edit: I was way too stoned when I wrote this lmao. Leaving up for the laughs

      That’s the Canada Goose. Although I don’t know anyone who hates them, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there were.

          Only media to ever defend them but it is a show that involves a lot of fighting and Canadian patriotism so it makes sense

          Hey, I wasn’t saying I had an issue with them. I for one welcome the cobra chicken’s return every spring and weep for their departure every fall. Because they signal the changing of the season from winter to not winter, and in Northern Ontario winter is long… and very much on its way.

        I think the person you’re replying to confused loons and canada geese. Canada geese are the assholes that will bully small children because they can lol
