Disgusting that a wildlife rescue said they would euthanise him. So glad that he wouldn't let them do that. What a great guy.

As a person who pulls domestic ducks out of wildlife rescues it's law in most states that wildlife rescues cannot take domestic animals they can get into bad trouble. He is a domestic duck

Ikr? I would do the same thing he did if I found a poor baby duck alone on the street, I just LOVE ducks as well as geese and swans, although granted geese and swans can be aggressive but I won't hold that against them since it's usually because they're protecting their babies, territories or any other reason.

Wildlife rescues cannot take domestic animals they can get into bad trouble. He is a domestic duck

Unfortunately, it's not easy to keep a creature alive. And there a millions upon millions of such creatures. It's an overwhelming issue with an unfortunate answer sometimes. Granted, I don't see why we spend billions of dollars keeping monsters like kiddie creeps and violent criminals around in jail but euthanize helpless creatures. Swap it around, if you ask me. 😆

Duck redux!! Very similar to our childhood. My brother found an Easter duck in a trash can, thrown away after the holiday. Brought him home, looking just like your little guy. We hand raised him, he turned into a very large beautiful white Pekin duck, and lived in our yard for many years. He was called Peep (much like yours) because he peeped all night long when he was a baby inside our house. My mother used to warm a towel in the dryer, and rock him to sleep every night, put him back in his cozy box…..and about two minutes later, his peeping started. We adored him. The male ducks can be quite territorial, have a wide wingspan, will chase, and will occasionally nip someone they dislike. Per your instinct, we made our Peep hot oatmeal in the winter when he lived in our playhouse filled with straw in the winter.

Vets seem very obsessed with putting down animals instead of doing their jobs to help and I hope not all of them are like this.

[@GorillaGlue42]

I was just going to say something similar. Not only vets, but the humane society ironically is also quick to euthanize animals brought to them

[@Colaschnittchen]

They often have very limited amount of resources and a lot of animals to care for. Its a really unkind job sometimes, but they have to priotise who to help and who not to :( Edit: Talking about wildlife services and shelters

[@Woozlewuzzleable]

When I was a kid my mom took my older cat to the vet. He said that he got into the job for the money and that we could pay a lot of money to keep him a live for a little longer but that we should just put him down, my mom did because couldn't afford to.

[@xaeo]

Are you trying to say they enjoy it or….? There’s way more money in it for the vet if they try to keep the pets alive, so I guess I’m confused on what you’re saying.

[@annaal7480]

@@Colaschnittchen If they did what good shelters do (check Shelter Friend in Ukraine who are over the limit because of the war but still able to take new animals in once they dispatch some to new homes around Europe or Takis Shelter in Corfu, doing just this). If they don’t focus on finding animals permanent homes they will always have to euthanize new ones. It takes an effort and a new staff in charge of adoptions, but organisations like Humane Society could do it easily if they cut their top office workers salaries.
