The goose
that was shot in the neck with an arrow in Prospect Park last week—cruelly nicknamed Target—is going to be okay! According to the Brooklyn Paper, the goose came right up to parkgoers over the weekend and ate food out of their hands, and the arrow was nowhere to be seen! The witnesses said the wound was healing, but "you could still see right through the hole.”
Park administrator Tupper Thomas says her staff noticed the arrow falling out, and it's believed to have fallen out on its own without having hit any vital parts; most likely it hit a fatty portion of the neck. One park worker said the goose is likely in good health, noting if it "was infected, the other geese would have sensed it immediately and killed it—they’re nasty like that."
Meanwhile, where's the arrow? This is the only link to Target's would-be assassin!
