On F&G ... farmers used to be able to apply for permits to “ disperse “ geese on farms, which a lot of the times were done by F&G officers and their buddies ( Mostly with little success ) one occasion on our farm we managed to organise a bunch of local duck shooters to do the dispersing and they managed to disperse about 200, the next day a few of the shooters were phoned by F&G demanding names of people involved, numbers of birds and who issued the permit, also being told that this in no way was what the permits were for and that it was unlikely that any more would be issued, if this was what was going to be happening. Basically they were pissed that someone had done their job for them and they spat the dummy, have also had them turn up in nice new F&G 4x4,s while I was hunting geese on our farm ( with permit ) and begin setting up between the lake and where I was positioned ...... once they figured out the mob of geese 500m away were decoys they packed up real quick and scarpered. A lot of Stuff like that went on
