I have stumbled across this site while in search for answers for my own avian inspired problem. My husband and I have one remaining white adult male goose. We are pretty attached to it especially after loosing his mate last year. We have a pond with two other small ducks who have all sadly lost their mates. He is fairly sure it is a possum or raccoon getting our babies. Anyway, the other day he discovered our goose in the pond unable to lift his head with what looks like bite marks and dried blood on his neck. We brought him home, tried to clean him up some without moving his neck too much. He has not eaten since Sunday but he is able to lift his head now. We have him inside with us in a large dog kennel. He has barely slept and we literally had to force him to lie down tonight. He looks exhausted and will lay his head down on its side and close his eyes. I have been reading all your post and wondering what you might recommend we could try. We desperatly want to save him.
