You can be my wingman any time: 'Top Gun' geese up for adoption
The Calgary Humane Society is hoping to find homes for two geese named after high-flying characters from the movie Top Gun.
The fowl are named Maverick and Nick Bradshaw – a character better known by his nickname 'Goose.'
In a Friday Facebook post, the humane society said the birds are very intelligent and inquisitive.
"They also have a lot to say, and can be quite loud about it," said the post. "They like to spend a lot of time foraging for food, which mostly consists of grazing grass."
The birds need a home with a fenced field to keep them safe against predators, and a large tub of clean fresh water deep enough to bathe in.
Geese aren't the only feathered friends the humane society has up for adoption, there's also a duck named Daisy available.
Daisy is shown in Calgary Humane Society photo. (Calgary Humane Society) Daisy needs plenty of space to wander around and a pond to swim in, said the Calgary Humane Society.
"Ducks aren't legal to own in Calgary and certain other municipalities, so you'll have to check your bylaws," warned the website.
