Residents in southeast Houston are scratching their heads after a goose, affectionately named Maverick, showed up in the neighborhood.
It's believed he might be an African Goose, but the bigger question is how in the world did he get there? The African Goose is a breed of domestic goose known for its thick body, short bill, and distinctive large knob attached to its forehead.
Originating in Europe in the late 1700s, the goose was brought over to North America from traveling ships in the mid-1800s. Its unique traits are the result of selective breeding, with many believing they are attributed to traits of both the Swan Goose and the Chinese goose. There are three recognized varieties of the African Goose, including the gray, brown, and white variations.
