Banding locations of Atlantic Flyway Resident Population Canada Geese marked with satellite- tracked transmitters during May 2001 and 2003. Many studies have demonstrated that altering sur- vival of adult geese is much more effective in changing population size than altering recruitment rates (Trost et al. 1986; Schmutz et al. 1997). However, direct culling of molting birds continues to remain a socially unacceptable option for population control in many areas. One alternative, transplanting flightless adults with young from nuisance areas to rural areas prior to the fall hunting season, successfully reduced survival of adults in comparison to non-transported birds, but was both time consuming and costly (Holevinski et al. 2006). Inducing molt migration of adult breeding geese by destroying nests late in incubation, as demonstrated in this study, showed potential for both removal of birds from their breeding area during the spring and sum- mer period and exposing them to hunting outside the region. However, our failure to demonstrate this in coastal areas, which have more prominent nuisance Canada goose issues, was problematic. We can only assume that the reason for this was attributed to the historical origin of captive-reared birds of mixed sub- species making up AFRP flocks in this part of the fly- way and the availability of quality local molting habitat distinct from brood-rearing areas.
