they have shot loads of ducks in my local park...

[stokemaveric]

for ''health reasons'' apparently...disgraceful....

[ummmm]

What health reasons?

I love ducks :-(((

[McMouse]

May I have a couple. Really fancy roast duck.

[4getmenot]

but it may be that they could be passing on nasty diseases

[marval]

I have just got the orange sauce out. Sorry that was not funny, shooting ducks is not on, I wonder what the health reasons are.

[ummmm]

I think they are the cutest creatures ever....

Doesn't stop them being tasty though.

My neighbour won't let her children go to the local park 'cos it's covered in duck muck.

[kawakiri]

What breed of duck?

[stokemaveric]

they were canadian geese....our local park is quite clean really...they shot them at 6.00 am yesterday morning after what has happened in cumbria recently it alarmed local residents...and naturally so..waking up to the sound of gunshots is not the ideal wake up call eh?....

[ChuckFickens]

Canadian geese??

What a odd bread of duck!

[McMouse]

Canada Geece are not ducks. Please cancel my order.

[4getmenot]

so why did they shoot them, what health reasons?

[jackthehat]

Bloody Canadians............coming over here..............mumble mumble...........

[ChuckFickens]

Canadian geese are considered to be a pest now as there are so many of them in some places and where they gather they leave piles and piles of goose poo!

[bobjugs12]

Good, geese are horrifc nasty animals that all deserve to die!! Shotings to good for the honking b'stards!!!

[stokemaveric]

well a duck is a duck to me whether it be from canada,russia or siberia...i still think shooting them is barbaric...

[ChuckFickens]

Yep I agree, a duck is a duck,

And a goose is a goose.

i can see why they want to limit the number of birds there.

[Prudie]

a duck is a duck stoke and a goose is a goose!

They do this in my local park too and I think it's because of the anti-poo brigade!
