Two geese loved by Sheffield locals relocated to safer area after being spotted waddling along roads
Two geese, popular with Sheffield locals, have been relocated to a safer area - away from the city centre roads.
Two geese who were spotted waddling along roads in Sheffield have been successfully relocated to a safer area with less traffic.
South Yorkshire Street Cats said, despite being a cat rescue, “sometimes animals don’t check the job description before asking for help. And honestly, we couldn’t say no.”
The rescue said the geese had been living on a canal just off Attercliffe Road and workmen from a local business fed and interacted with them. However, the geese had a worrying hobby of waddling along roads, including around bends.

With the help of the workmen, the geese were put into a crate and transported by car - with calming classical music playing - to their new safer home.
South Yorkshire Street Cats said: “We like to think that our efforts were not in vain and the geese can now live happy healthy long lives, free from the chaotic roads in the city centre.”
