People almost always refer to “Canadian” geese instead of Canada geese. I will frequently chime in with “How did you know their nationality? Did you check their passports?” :D
Huh, and after a bit of searching, I see there’s even a Canadian horse. Italian wolf, Irish hare… the nationality suffix does seem to be way more common. Funny.

Kudos for using the right form!
I’m surprised that it isn’t “Canadian”. The nationality suffix is often used to denote an animal’s native area (eg: Indian Elephant, etc)
