A £250,000 reward has been offered in an attempt to track down the killers of a much-loved goose which was reportedly shot at point-blank range.
The white goose, known as Grumpy Gertie, was so well-known in Sandon, Hertfordshire, he appeared on the village's sign.
But he was found shot dead at the village pond on Sunday amid reports he was gunned down by a gang in a 4x4. Link.
This tale of murder most fowl and the incensed reaction leading to a £250,000 reward could only come from Britain.
So proud to be British today. :lamo
This bird actually stood guard and helped ducks cross the road in the sleepy little village of Sandon.
