NJ:Safer-sex product could help contain fowl droppings
Safer-sex product could help contain fowl droppings

Sometimes it seems the pharmaceutical industry wants to sell a pill for everything. Now comes a medicine that could make it safer to walk New Jersey's golf courses, parks, corporate centers, beach areas and athletic fields.
A North Caldwell man and his California partner have developed a contraceptive that could limit Canada geese births. Just like in humans, Canada geese would have to take a prescribed regular daily dose of the drug and the likelihood of producing offspring would be quite low.
"I don't want to tell you this is a magical cure. But it's definitely a long-term population management tool to help deal with Canada geese," said Erick Wolf, who along with North Caldwell's Alex MacDonald, is co-partner of California-based Innolytics.
"Our product looks, smells, tastes like a bread ball. We have not found a goose yet who has turned it down," MacDonald said last week at a forum at the Essex County Environmental Center. "It's a wheat-based product. Semi-soft. It's the size of Kix cereal. And it's very palatable to geese."
