"This revised edition is not an expanded version of the original, summarizing, for example, the dozens of studies that hve been made of the productivity of various subpopulations of the "Giant Canada Goose" since its rediscovery. Rather, the main objectives of this revised, slightly enlarged edition are to redefine the range of this race as it was originally understood and to correct earlier assumptions based on the literature as to racial identity of peripheral populations."--Page xvii.

Postulating a new technique—feather mineral pattern analysis—for determining the geographic origins and distributions of wild goose populations, this book makes a unique contribution to wildlife research and management. Of special interest are the authors’ efforts to relate feather mineral concentrations to the physical and chemical translocations of mineral elements from the rock substrates of the various breeding grounds of wild geese, to the soils and the parts of the ecosystems in which they live, to their final deposition in feather keratin.
