Fermilab Today reported that, “A new posse in town has its sights set on Fermilab’s feathery fowl. Patrols of the laboratory will continue randomly through April in an effort to address safety issues related to the laboratory’s resident goose population.” The Geese Police, a goose-control company from Naperville IL, will employ specially-trained border collies to chase geese away from building entrances and lawns. “Border collies are bred to herd sheep. Their natural instinct to run after things without hurting them,” said Fermilab ecologist Rod Walton.
