Description

Two young Canada geese discover a strange object in their natural habitat. Believing that it is a dinosaur egg, they alert their flock immediately. They quickly ban together when a group of strangers arrives and begins kicking the abandoned egg. What ensues is a very funny match. Will the geese enforce the rules of the game between man and nature?
