Geese who ravage crops to be turned into BURGERS in radical new scheme MORE than 700 greylag geese are to be shot in the Outer Hebrides and turned into burgers in a bid to stop the birds ravaging crofters' crops. The three-year pilot project to manage the goose population of Lewis and Harris - approved by Scottish Natural Heritage - is activated today. The trial aims to reduce agricultural damage crofters and farmers experience by reducing the size of the greylag goose population in a controlled and co-ordinated way. The shooting will continue until August 31, after which it will pause for progress to be reviewe. A spokesman for SNH said: "Work will be undertaken by a team of experienced volunteer shooters, operating under licence and following established best practice methods.
