Any adult can easily beat a goose

For real. If this is a fight to the death you know I’m going to beat a rat, cat, goose, dog, and an eagle. Maybe a cobra too. The other ones are probably going to be pretty tough.

I mean an eagle has one good shot and then its in arms range, and after that it looses. Maybe it gets in a good hit raking someone's face or arms with its talons, but as soon as it gets in close, that's game over. Just a massive weight differential working against it.

I thought I could beat a king cobra too. But apparently one bite contains enough venom to kill 20 people, or an elephant. So running away is winning here lol

For sure. But if you can’t run I think you’d have a 50/50 chance of killing it. I wouldn’t bet my life on it, but if I had no choice I think it would be a fair fight.

Even a child could beat a goose. Their bones are easily broken as they have to be light for flight, and their necks are very easily wringable. Even a small child could choke one in a fight to the death.

Now of course, in the real world we'd all rather just run away than fight a goose to the death. But if in some fantasy scenario you had to, you are not losing.

A medium dog is more dangerous by far. Dogs can kill people. Never read about someone dying from a goose attack.
