About this episode
From ginormous Giants to mallard-sized cacklers, Canada Goose subspecies express tremendous size and color variability. Ever wondered why? Once lumped as 11 subspecies, they're now classified as 7 Canada Goose subspecies and 4 Cackler Goose subspecies--but it was once proposed that there be 200 subspecies! Confused? Don't be. Jim Leafloor is Head of Aquatic Unit for Environment and Climate Change Canada. A recognized authority, Leafloor's spent a considerable portion of his extensive career researching Canada geese and throws a million candle-power spotlight on the otherwise murky subject of Canada goose subspecies. We do a deep dive and you're bound to learn a thing or 3 about North America's most iconic goose.
