VIDEO: Lonely Nicomen Island duck follows humans around after coyotes kill her friends
A lonely duck raised on a Nicomen Island farm, just east of Mission, has recently found a new home with other birds after losing her two best friends to coyotes.
Crouth said that ducks are extremely social animals that like to hang out in groups, rarely waddling far away. When they’d go into the house, she waited outside at the door, Crouth said, adding once the duck walked all the way to a neighbouring farm to be close to humans. The neighbour had to walk her back.Crouth said they had to find a new home for the duck as their family had a vacation planned, and didn’t want to get more ducks until the coyote situation was safe and under control.
