Is this a wild animal or is it just free-roaming? Picture taken on 14/05/2025.
I'm not certain, but I think that this is a Lesser White-fronted Goose (Anser erythropus). Pink-footed Geese don't have the white forehead, and they have legs that are pinker than this and the base of their bill is dark (they have a bicolored bill - dark at the base and pink at the tip.) Both species may have been present at the zoo.
