🪿Canada Goose
カナダガン （加奈陀雁、学名:Branta canadensis）は、顔に白いラインが入り、頭と首が黒く体が茶色の羽で覆われた雁（ガン）。カナダガモともいう。北アメリカのカナダとアメリカ合衆国の寒冷地域および温暖地域に生息し、ヨーロッパ北部に渡ることもある。これまでイギリス、ニュージーランド、アルゼンチン、チリ、フォークランド諸島でも生息が確認されている。多くのガン、ガチョウと同様、カナダガンは草食の渡り鳥であり、淡水近辺を好む傾向がある。 食糧に困らず自生の外敵の少ない都心や開発地域などでも繁殖コロニーを形成しており、公園で生息する鳥として知られている。ただし作物を食い荒らし、騒音、排泄、縄張り意識の問題などで害鳥と考えられることもある。また北米では水辺の狩猟の獲物となることが多い。
