In response to "I thought this was a joke, but it's true. Also, I didn't know geese were killed in the making of shuttlecocks. Can't they make an alternative? -- nm" by jnine

They don't kill the geese to get the feathers. They take them from them while they're alive though it's quite painful.

They take both right and left feathers but only the left are used in shuttlecocks for tournaments.
