In the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina, prison authorities made an unusual decision - to replace guard dogs with geese. Geese reportedly turned out to be more effective in matters of protection, and they are much cheaper to keep than dogs, reports novosti.kg with reference to Oddity Central.
“Geese have good hearing, and they make loud sounds, thereby warning the guards about an emergency situation”, - explained the prison security service.
Using geese as prison guards is not a new practice. Back in 2011, the Sobral prison in Sao Paulo made international headlines for using a flock of these birds as a way to prevent prisoners from escaping.
