--20cf307f3be09d205b04c9821d1c Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Jim ,this story has been in and out of the media for a few months now.Someone in Halifax had a domestic duck that they dumped in Hemlock Ravine. I was contacted about it and myself and Hope S did an interview on the radio about it, both offering to help find a home for it. I havent heard anything from those monitoring it until it showed up in the media again this week. Healthy ducks, even those that cant fly, can be hard to catch without trained people....and even then still difficult :) Helene On Sep 12, 2012 11:02 AM, "James W.
