About Gans Martin

Martin was born in February 2009. He came to the court in September 2009 with his companion Claudia, who unfortunately died in winter 2013. Martin was lucky not to end as a “Christmas roast” as it is, unfortunately, normal for geese. Martin and Claudia were inseparable – Gänse remain true for a lifetime and live monogam. Martin suffered a lot from Claudia’s death. He alone – without a new companion – would have died of his mourning within a short time. So we had to find a new companion for him as soon as possible. From a companion two – Martina and Nofretete. With his two women, Martin was happy and satisfied again. But Martina also died after about half a year at our farm. Martin and Nofretete miss their companion, but the death of Martina brought the two closer together. In May 2013, a new, larger outlet with a small pond was completed for the geese. On December 30, 2014, Martin died of an infection. He has been treated by the veterinarian for several days, yet he was getting worse. His beloved Nofretet was with him and kept the night with her dead friend. Gänse are very faithful animals and so she had the opportunity to say goodbye to her Martin at all ease.

Martin wurde im Februar 2009 geboren. Er kam im September 2009 mit seiner Gefährtin Claudia, die leider im Winter 2013 gestorben ist, auf den Hof. Martin hatte das Glück, nicht als „Weihnachtsbraten“ zu enden, wie es leider für Gänse die Normalität ist. Martin und Claudia waren unzertrennlich – Gänse bleiben sich ein Leben lang treu und leben monogam. Martin litt sehr unter Claudia’s Tod. Alleine – ohne neue Gefährtin – wäre er binnen kürzester Zeit an seiner Trauer gestorben. Wir mußten also schnellstens eine neue Gefährtin für ihn finden. Aus einer Gefährtin wurden zwei – Martina und Nofretete. Mit seinen beiden Frauen war Martin nun wieder glücklich und zufrieden. Doch auch Martina starb nach ca. einem halben Jahr bei uns auf dem Hof. Martin und Nofretete vermissen ihre Gefährtin, doch der Tod von Martina hat die beiden noch näher zusammen gebracht. Für die Gänse wurde im Mai 2013 ein neuer, größerer Auslauf mit kleinem Teich fertig gestellt. Am 30. Dezember 2014 starb Martin an einer Infektion. Er wurde bereits seit mehreren Tagen vom Tierarzt behandelt, trotzdem ging es ihm immer schlechter. Seine geliebte Nofretete war bei ihm und hat auch die Nacht über noch bei ihrem toten Freund Wache gehalten. Gänse sind sehr treue Tiere und so hatte sie Gelegenheit, sich in aller Ruhe von ihrem Martin zu verabschieden.
