Geese are a species of wildlife in Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West.
Geese seen in the Horizon series appear to be Canada geese, a migratory species that can be found in North America, New Zealand, and northwestern Europe.
History
In the Old World
Geese zygotes were among the animals that were successfully collected before the Faro Plague eradicated the species and stored within ARTEMIS for later use in Project Zero Dawn.
In the New World
Despite not being among the animals listed by Charles Ronson as a pioneer organism,[1] geese were released into the wilds, inhabiting the Sacred Lands and the northeastern Clan Lands. Whether they are indeed pioneer organisms and were released under GAIA's orders or were released by ARTEMIS during its independence is unknown.
Horizon Forbidden West
In order to make Chef's Special, Pentalla enlisted Aloy to collect some Bird Eggs from geese nests, as well as some Bird Meat.[2]
Behavior
Geese tend to gather on high elevations or near water, with a breeding grounds on the island off the shore of Salt Bite.
Geese don't cause any harm to Aloy, and tend to fly away upon noticing her or being fired at.
Uses
Geese are the only source of Geese Bones and Skin in Horizon Zero Dawn.
