A disabled Plainfield man was attacked by two Canada geese outside a
Northwestside department store in the latest conflict between people and the

The geese have become so prolific that the state Department of Natural
Resources has almost exhausted the 1,300 nest-destruction permits it can
issue this year.

was with her -- will not face charges but will receive warnings, a state
conservation officer said Thursday.
