Someone dropped by with a hurt duck today at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. We made it a separate recuperation pen. People often buy little yellow ducklings as pets then dump them in local neighborhood ponds after they grow. Usually they are killed by predators within a few days. This female Pekin duck was lucky to be saved by a concerned stranger. Don’t buy your child a baby duck!!!!
