A duck, wounded by an arrow through its neck, is recovering thanks to help from Pinellas County’s Animal Services, Bradenton’s Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation and staff and a student at SPC’s Veterinary Technology Center, Bay News 9, TBO.com and TBNweekly.com reported. The college is in a collaborative partnership with Animal Services.
The duck, now known as Quackers, appeared to be doing well after surgery to remove the arrow and was transferred to a rehabilitation center. Officials did not know who shot the bird, according to news reports.
Aww! Oh my goodness! What kind of duck is that?! That looks like it’s part Muscovy! Poor baby, thank you for all of that hard work!
