My husband and I were at the park earlier feeding the ducks. One of the ducks had a fishhook through its mouth. We went in to tell the people in the community center and the lady told us that there are teenagers who take fishing poles and put bread on it and try to "catch" the ducks. When she told me that it honestly made me want to cry. I cannot even begin to understand why a person would want to do that. The ducks are really friendly and will eat the food right out of your hand. The lady we talked to said one of the ducks has already died from a hook being stuck. Luckily we have an wildlife refuge just a block away so we went to talk to them and they told us to find one of the park workers and let them know and they will catch the duck and bring it down to have the hook removed. If they dont though I will probably catch it myself and take it down. And god help those kids if I see them doing that crap!!
 
I dont know...I honestly wonder why the park workers dont do something though if they know the teenagers are doing that. Id probably get myself in all kinda trouble if I saw them doing it in person. Im hoping they can catch it today. Ill defenitely be going down tomorrow to see if it is still there.
 
that is just terrible!! I don't understand how someone could ever hurt an animal. Tho I'm one of those people who can't catch mice or smash bugs either.
