These migratory birds are highly adaptable and can be found in a range of habitats, from urban parks to remote northern tundras. Social and intelligent, Canada Geese play a crucial role in their ecosystems, aiding in the dispersal of plant seeds and contributing to the biodiversity of their habitats. Their seasonal migrations, often covering thousands of miles, are a remarkable feat of endurance and navigation.
