Part 1 of 2.
Wildlife rescuers face snake infested waters to save ducks and swans from the annual duck shoot, and one duck undergoes surgery to mend a broken wing.
(From ABC TV, Aussie Animal Rescue: Lucky Duck)

Duck hunting has been permanently banned in Western Australia, New South Wales, Queensland, and the ACT.
Victorian Environment Minister Gavin Jennings cancelled the 2008 duck hunting season in the state due to the drought, but he didn't make the ban permanent.

  • To jagerfaust2009: FUCK YOU. you obviously are too obsorbed in you disney mentality to realize that conservationists (i.e. Hunters, etc...) do more for maintaining balance in ecosystems and prevention of large population crashes in species than any other groups.
