Even arctic foxes get plenty of baby geese hunting alone.
Just a matter of try and try again.
Wild cats could do the same.

If his family of barn cats made a plan to hunt in a group,
just like wolves do, they could take out the entire goose
family easily. Start with the adults then save the babies
for snacks later.

In Sheldon's area, hawks or eagles would have no problem
snatching one as desired.

Not only that, remember Sheldon bought a nifty 12-guage
which is good for the occasional goose dinner.

I don't even trust his intentions.
