A lot of people use them as guard critters- I believe either the Chinese, or
the Japanese, or both have used them historically for that purpose. Once
they determine their territory, woe betide any trespassers- if you team them
with geese, the trespasser is named and attacked ;-)

If I ever get my own place again, I intend to have both geese and guineas-
they're interesting birds ;-)

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
cat.

Never a horse that cain't be rode,
And never a rider who cain't be throwed....
