The Hand That Feeds You

They say that you don't bite the hand that feed you.  Well, you don't unless you're a goose, more specifically this goose, I mean gander.  This gander will eat from a tray in your hand and gain your trust.  He will act as though he can't quite reach enough food and then when you least expect it...Bam!  He goes for the hand.
