Subject: [VTBIRD] Goslings (VTBIRD)

I know someone who say they have "rescued" several canadian goose
goslings.   They say that the parents abandoned them.  Likely in fear of
a cat, (theirs).  How likely it is that the parents abandoned them.
Can they be raised successfully and accepted back to the wild?
Are they breaking any laws by doing this?
Thanks
