HAVE a gander at this mystery goose – do you know her?

The RSPCA has issued a call for the owner of a very unusual pet found wandering outside a Brisbane bayside shopping centre to come forward before tomorrow.

The cape barron female goose, dubbed “Gracie”, was found outside an Ormiston shop last Wednesday, and the owner has yet to come forward to the RSPCA.

The distinctive-looking and rare goose is native to Tasmania and can’t be released into the wild because she’s so friendly and domesticated she wouldn’t survive.

“She was bought in to us by Pelican and Sea Bird Rescue, who initially thought she might have been a sort of stray wild goose, but no she’s so docile and used to people she’s definitely been a pet,” spokesman Michael Beatty said.

“You definitely couldn’t put her back in the wild.”

“She’s so docile and used to people she’s definitely been a pet,” spokesman Michael Beatty said. Vets aren’t sure whether she was bred in captivity in Queensland or brought up from Tasmania.

Gracie’s “stray time” for her owners to come forward and claim her is almost up. A potential adoptee would need a permit to take Gracie home.
