An animal owner wants the public to help him trace four baby geese that were stolen from his garden.

The Canada goslings were taken from an enclosure outside his house in Woolgarston, near Corfe Castle, Dorset.

Their 62-year-old owner discovered they were missing from their large wire pen on Saturday at 0940 BST.

Police have also appealed for anyone who may have seen the theft, or who has been offered geese for sale recently, to come forward.
