Goose living with dart in head

FERGUS FALLS, Minn., May 31 (UPI) -- A wild Canada goose with a blow dart stuck in its head has been spotted in Fergus Falls, Minn., say police who have gotten calls from concerned citizens.

Conservation officers tried to capture the bird last week so the dart could be removed but it hasn't been cooperative, KBRF-AM, Fergus Falls, reported.

"As of right now the plan is to just let it be," Troy Richards, a conservation officer with the state Department of Natural Resources, told the radio station. "It looks healthy, and it is getting around and eating."

It wasn't known how long the goose has lived with the projectile lodged in its head or where it was shot.
