An injured Canada goose has been wandering around an Upstate NY town like it doesn't have a giant arrow lodged in its neck for about a month.

Members of the SPCA in Erie County and the Department of Environmental Conservation have been on a literal wild goose chase following sightings of the female goose in Amherst, near Buffalo, WIVB-TV reported.

Every time searchers follow up on a report of the goose, it gets away, and that's partly because the goose is still able to walk and fly as though it is completely uninjured.

Officials have not stated how the arrow got there.

"If somebody sees the goose maybe nesting, that would be an ideal time" to get to it, Gina Browning of the SPCA told WKBW-TV. "Maybe we can get out there, the goose won't leave the nest, won't leave its eggs, and hopefully we can work to get that arrow out."

Anyone who sees the goose sitting still has been asked to call the SPCA at (716) 875-7360 or Amherst Police Animal Control at (716) 689-1311.

You can see photos and a video clip of the goose in the WIVB report below.
