Class!

Still, you have to wonder as they say -

"We have received about 250 calls from the public and we are doing all we can, but ducks take off like a helicopter and go straight up, so they are the hardest creatures to catch and help. If we can't catch it, the only thing we can do is hope that the tape comes loose but these people seem to have used waterproof tape."
Those mentally ill yobs managed it though... :D

The ways and means of a twisted mind, still, I can't belive one duck is so hard to catch, not in this day and age :shrug:

Oh for ducks sake...

Still joking aside I hope they catch the people responsible. Taping up their mouths and noses for a few hours would be a good start.

I wouldn't mind doing that. Hell, I'd probably take to it like a duck to water.

Mind you, it would probably water of a duck's back to them :shrug:

I think the reason they can't catch it, is because they try & sneak up on it, but it keeps Peking. ;)

Poor thing, though, I hope they manage to sort it out, the cruelty of some people beggars belief.

Why would they have to be mentally ill? Just because some people act in awful ways doesn't necessarily mean they are mentally ill. Suggesting this has the effect of firstly disassociating ourselves from the act, and secondly adding to the stigma of mental health problems.

Sadly that is probably true, we are, after all, the most destructive life form on the planet so perhaps cruelty is an inherent part of our nature and we are no better than animals that function on instinct alone. But that would be insulting to animals, at least they mostly kill to survive, not for a laugh.:angel:
