Last weekend, rescuers at Lake Buloke, northern Victoria, found four dead Pink-eared Ducks, three wounded birds that couldn’t be caught and three wounded birds that were caught and taken to a wildlife facility for treatment and rehabilitation. I applaud their efforts to try and prevent the needless suffering of our waterbirds. If there were a million PE Ducks in Victoria, the mutilation and slow death of even one isn’t justifiable. The last weekend of the season is the upcoming Queen’s Birthday long weekend, which is expected to draw hunters to many wetlands.
