Uninhibited DUCKS North Canterbury Duck Rescue

25/08/2026

In NZ finding vets with regular bird experience can make all the difference to whether a bird lives or dies. Unfortunately there are not enough vets with this experience and in some
areas none at all. This law change will sooner or later result in birds duck as ducks being denied anything close to good veterinary care. please sign it and share

This is a sad story of animal abuse......
The animal was the abuser.
I was the innocent victim.
One vet gave up on him and recommended euthanasia after a week, luckily for him (unluckily for me! ) another vet was willing to give him a chance. In his defence, the duck in question has been on antibiotics for the last 3 months (meaning I had to pill him two tablets a day) as he had a bad leg infection that had reached the bone. 3 months later he has gone from being unable to stand let alone walk, to standing, walking, and in the last few days, running. Unfortunately 3 months of me pilling him has not done much for his attitude to me and hence the injuries documented below! Smiley, you are a right little sh , but its the same sort of hard arse attitude thats gotten you through this. I just wish you could see and recognise all the vet bills...maybe you'd peck me a little less at bath time... but probably not...

These injuries brought to you by Smiley the Duck and Mike from Straven Road Vets!

URGENT TRANSPORT REQUEST - AUCKLAND TO WELLINGTON 🦆


Please share!
Is anyone driving from Auckland to Wellington in the next few days who could help transport an injured duck to Wellington Bird Rehabilitation?

This little duck has lost approximately half of her upper beak, possibly as the result of being shot. Despite her horrific injury, she is still fighting, and Wellington Bird Rehabilitation have kindly agreed to assess her, care for her, and determine whether anything can be done to repair or improve her beak.

She is currently safe in Auckland and travelling in a secure carrier would be all that's required.

If you are heading to Wellington in the next few days, or know someone who is, please comment below or send me a message.

Please share this post. Somewhere out there is a person already making this trip, and for them it's just a bit of extra cargo. For this duck, it could mean the difference between a future and no future at all.

🦆 needed urgently

Thank you from one very determined little duck. ❤️Auckland → Wellington

At what cost to native and endangered birds....(from an Australian source, but the same thing happens here to our endangered birds such as the Whio (Blue duck). Is it worth potentially making them extinct? Once they are gone, they are gone forever...
