Duck terrorizes Florida neighborhood, sending 1 to hospital
CAPE CORAL, Fla. – Neighbors say an uninvited guest is causing chaos on their street in Cape Coral.
A Muscovy duck has not been a friendly visitor, with neighbors saying it has chased and bitten people, even sending one person to the hospital.
“I had my eyes closed, (and) all of a sudden I felt a jab on my hand and it was bleeding,” neighbor James Sepulveda said.
Wildlife officials say the duck is protected by federal law and can be removed, but only by humane methods.
Neighbors say they are trying to keep their distance from the unfriendly duck.
