We live in a recovering watershed and have a large flock of wild mallards. One of our neighbors decided it would be a good idea to let her 6 Runner Ducks, some crested, go into the creek "during the day". Well for the last couple of nights thhey apparently haven't gone "home". No....they are ducks. They have decided they want to live with the wild ducks. My dh and I saw them and herded them into my enclosure, as they can't fly and are literally "sitting ducks" for all the predators we have down here. Plus, they can mate with the wild ducks and totally mess up the wild flock by creatiing these crazy hybriids that can't fly. Not only that, but the runners hhave no idea how to forage for food etc.
Hopefully she comes and gets her ducks and stops letting them go. I explained to the other people living on theiir somewhat communal farm, and they get iit, so hopefully will explain to her why this is not ok.
Ugh. Do some research, folks, please.
