I am sorry to have to tell you all that we have lost Old Gal, she passed away after a good long life, while being pampered and housed indoors for the winter at Hope for Wildlife.
It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to one of our very special guests.
The old Sullivan's Pond goose with the bad eye passed away peacefully from old age last week. The beloved community gaggle of geese spend their summers at Sullivan's Pond in Dartmouth and their winters with us here at Hope for Wildlife.
Over the past few years his senior age had been slowing him down, and our team always took extra measures in the winter to make him comfortable by providing him with a specially-heated unit with plenty of soft bedding - and a variety of food options with extra toppings just for him. Our medical team and rehab staff did an amazing job of caring for him in his final days.
He touched a lot of lives and he will certainly be missed by all, including his little flock.
