We have been inundated with ducklings; currently caring for over 100. We have learnt that young people are being offered ducklings as pets for €5. These poor animals cannot survive without learning feeding skills and don't do well alone. Please DO NOT buy a "cute duckling".
Thank you to New Auburn Heights Residents Association who di their #SpringClean21 and got a lot of people involved while following all health and safety guidelines. Well done!
