Goose With Severely Injured Foot in Newton Heads to Hospital

The Boston Animal Rescue League helped get an injured goose some medical attention.

Thanks to a concerned citizen in Newton and the Boston Animal Rescue League, an injured goose is on the mend.

On Thursday, the rescue team at the Rescue League received a Tweet indicating that a goose with a severely injured foot was in Auburndale Cove Park in Newton.

With some gentle coaxing with some crackers, the goose responded to the rescue team, which brought the animal to the New England Wildlife Center the next morning for medical care.
