Subject: [permaculture] Geese as guards? Imprinting?

Howdy,
Is there anyone with any experience or advice regarding using geese
as guard animals for other livestock?
Will adult geese, that have not been raised/imprinted among chickens
take to guarding a new flock?
Any advise concerning geese harassing human visitors(or pet cats?) Is
this unlikely?
