West Texas Ducks in Need!

[EPChick]

Hello duck lovers in or near EL PASO, TEXAS!
I know it's a long shot but in case anyone can help or wants to adopt! Even if it's only a few that get homes, they could have a better chance at life.

Right now there are ~30 domestic duck starving in the parking lot of ASCARATE PARK and ASCARATE LAKE. Local Animal Services has chosen not to intervene and the park operators do not care for them.

The Stick House Sanctuary is a local wildlife rescue that has requested help from the community due to the negative impact on local wildlife. Here is more info from them ....

There were SO many Texas threads, I couldn't decide which one to start with! I figured I'd start here and cross-post as I have time. I hate that this is my hometown allowing it

I can imagine. I am very sorry. No water fowl rescues close by. Here in NC is Carolina Water fowl rescue they take wild and domestic.

Wish I had a way to help from up in Oregon. Hoping your posts might attract the attention of someone local that can help - Sending good luck to you and those poor ducks!

The Sherriff's department keeps saying it's a wildlife issue so they won't coordinate a rescue. :/

Is their any water fowl rescue groups in your area. I can see where the sheriffs dept. wouldn't want to get involved. Any chance of getting a group of folks together and doing this on your own. Surely there are people around who want ducks.

Did you post on all the Texas threads?

There are wild ducks all around down here in Houston.
Signs in all the parks around here say "DO NOT FEED THE WILD DUCKS."


They don't look like they are starving to me.

@KikisGirls these are domesticated ducks not wild. Dumped ducks

They live everywhere down here.
In ALL of the parks.
They may have once been domesticated but they are every where now...just like all the stray dogs and cats.
