Ducks dead in Fond Du Lac County Snowmobile Runs Over 57 Ducks (WARNING: Disturbing Picture)FOND DU LAC, Wis. (AP) -- Investigators are trying to find a snowmobiler who ran over and killed 57 mallard ducks on a river near Fond du Lac. The Department of Natural Resources says the ducks were killed Tuesday and found in a hole in the ice and on both sides of it in the Fond du Lac River. Warden Supervisor George Protogere says it appears a single snowmobiler performed two passes of water skipping over the ice hole and hit the ducks. The warden calls the killer a person with no concern for life. The incident comes as public outrage grows about another thrill killing near Waupaca. A group of snowmobilers herded and ran over five deer last weekend. Four were killed, and one was euthanized. ------ Information from: The Reporter, http://www.fdlreporter.com (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.) |
