The Shetland goose is a breed of domestic geese that originates in the Shetland Islands of Scotland.[1] Like the other breeds of livestock native to the islands, the Shetland goose is small in stature, generally weighing between 12 and 14 pounds (5 and 6 kilos).[2] They are very hardy and exceptionally good foragers, and are able to largely sustain themselves through grazing.[2]
