BARNSTABLE, Mass.
The Cape Wildlife Center said Arnold, a Canada goose that has lived in a pond near the facility with his mate for several years, had developed a significant limp Tuesday and kept falling over.
“As we prepared to sedate Arnold and get him ready for surgery, we heard a faint tapping at the clinic door,” the center said.
The facility normally does not allow visitation requests, but made an exception.
