    Bro, I’d rather try to punt a medium-size dog over a goose. You’re playing with fire there!

      A goose is a lot scarier than a medium dog, but if you punt a goose, it’s done for.

        Dude, I’ve seen geese shrug off a shotgun blast, wobble in the air, recover, and fly off.

        There are many, many puntable animals that are dangerous, both because you’re underestimating their toughness but also their ability to avoid being punted and attack.

        I’m not saying a goose or raccoon would be able to kill you, but there’s a lot of middle ground between “not dangerous” and “lethal danger”.

        A rat or squirrel or groundhog could easily leave a human minus a finger without breaking a sweat. Might not be able to kill a human, but that’s still dangerous in my book.
