All over the country ducks are being dumped in our public parks and ponds. One reason is they have become so readily available at feed-stores. Anyone can buy a cute duckling without awareness of their care and commitment. Second drakes are being dumped all the time, due to their hormone-driven agression and lack of usefulness.

Dumping ducks puts them in situations where they have no defenses due to domestication. When we are alerted to ducks that are dumped, we try to assess the situation as soon as possible. Its no easy task catching a duck. We use a variety of tools like, nets, food,  paddleboards, waders, and a lot of luck! We're hoping to expand our toolbox with a Clap Net, Netgun launcher, and a remote controlled speedboat.
