(nj.com subscription) — Edgewater is among several New Jersey towns that have previously hired Goose Control Technology, a company criticized for sometimes euthanizing Canada geese as part of its services. A current controversy in West Orange over whether to keep working with this vendor highlights broader debates about humane versus lethal goose management methods that could influence how Edgewater and similar communities handle growing goose populations.
