OK, I would never date a women that had a duck as a pet.

These people are like ferret owners, only caring for themselves and not anyone else.

"The agency does not support that concept."

How very jack-booted authoritarian.

A woman, not harming anyone, minding her own business, and not being cruel to animals is hunted down by the state. Liberals and their stupid laws drive me crazy.

Truly. And I don't understand because I see baby ducks sold in Del's all the time. They're different from this one, how?

Environmental gestapos can keep you from cutting down your own trees or plowing the fields on your own farm.

What's another duck?

Her mistake was not keeping the duck in the refrigerator.

Meanwhile, Erdmann and her colleagues are still stunned by how ridiculous it all seems.

I'm with her. Good grief.

I had a crow for awhile.... till it recovered and flew away.

You are exactly correct here. This is all about the lunatic fringe here that believes animals are better off without human relationships. Peta et all.

Different breed. This duck was a Mallard, a native wild species, not breed of farm duck.

Hey, a friend of mine has several ducks, guineas, chickens, goats, potbellied pigs, three miniature horses, a mule, and a Welsh-Arab pony. Not to mention the dog and the cats.

She makes huge pets of them all - and she is as sweet and nice a lady as you ever met, her husband is a prince too.

And I have another friend with a ferret who's a very nice fellow. He uses the ferret to run computer cables under floors.

I think it's newsworthy.... question should be "This is worthy of law enforcement?"
