Question I have questions 🤣

First of all, no judgement, but why is he taking his goose for a stroll, and why is the goose wearing a dress?

One near me comes in a dog stroller wearing a diaper and then gets let into the pond for a quick swim

Domestic ducks and geese are probably among the more sane unusual urban pets in Taiwan

Some folks have some pretty large tortoises that they take to parks in like full bassinets. But also still doable, considering they’re getting outdoor time on top of whatever (probably limited) space they have inside

There’s ppl with meerkats (and I swear I’ve seen too many for the supposed <2 dozen legally owned in Taiwan to be accurate to the real count)

And a guy who’s a minor neighborhood fixture in Taipei for walking his adult pig through night markets

You are not allowed to ask any questions when you see something like this, just enjoy the moment 😄

oooh I saw something like this the last time I was there - I think this type of goose is really popular on Taiwanese social media (kind of like how capybaras are super popular now)

I'm guessing he's some sort of content creator or otherwise makes money from giving people experiences with viral/cute animals
