Menomonie is turning hunters loose on its goose problem.
The city council last night approved goose hunts in four city parks. City officials say the geese are becoming a problem in local parks, and there are worries they could be too much for the local airport. Menomonie’s police department will handle the hunt, and the DNR will regulate it. The city says anyone who lives near one of the parks will be notified when there will be a hunt.
