Alleged Destruction of Canada Goose Nest Faces Scrutiny at Carson City School

The Nevada Department of Wildlife is reported to be investigating an official from the Cason City School District as a yet to be publicly named person faces community accusations of intentionally destroying a Canada Goose nest at Fritsch Elementary School on Bath Street.

We reached out to the Carson City School District for additional details but they didn’t respond.

Several years ago, a goose family had set up a nest on the school’s playground. The school had then fenced off the area and turned the family’s presence into many educational opportunities. Once Canadian geese have established a nest they become federal protected.

Locals have since reached out to Our Town Reno saying that during a dog walk a school district official used her dog to chase off a goose on school grounds before allegedly destroying a nest, stomping eggs and throwing everything out, which if confirmed and there’s a conviction could be punishable by up to $15,000 and or up to six months in jail.
