The biggest threat occurs during the first couple of weeks after the eggs are laid and then after hatching.
Their nesting success was much lower when Snowy Owls were absent, which leads scientists to believe that the owls, since they are predatory, were capable of keeping competing predators away from the nests.
Additional predators at the nest have reportedly included wolves, coyotes and all three North America bear species.
Few predators regularly prey on Snow Geese outside of the nesting season, but Bald Eagles ( as well as possibly Golden Eagles ) will readily attack wintering geese.
