Someone took a hammer to a nest of seven-candidate goose eggs at the independent center mall on April 28th, smashing them right in a planter. Outside Jarrah Jewelers, these geese nested there every year, and mall staff along with shoppers had been watching closely, waiting for the Goslings to hatch. The general manager, Tamika Bryan, even shared updates and photos on Facebook after checking them that Monday morning. Bryan was stunned when a store employee called, with the bad news, expecting baby geese instead of destruction. She posted a hard-broken message online, calling out the act as illegal and a felony, and folks flooded the comments with outrage. The mall quickly alerted police and wildlife officials, who are now hunting for the woman caught on camera driving up to do the deed. Employees and goose fans won her held accountable for ruining what was about to be a new family. This senseless mashup has everyone rethinking how we treat nature in everyday spots like mall planters, and fingers crossed just as catches up fast. I'm Cory with the story. That's your Kansas News Today update, AI powered and always on.
