Peg

Peg is a wild mallard that lives in the duck pond on the property. Peg’s left leg was broken after a bad landing and was amputated below the knee. But she certainly hasn’t let this slow her down. Peg still loves swimming with all her friends, and waddles over, a bit slower, but still quite efficiently, for feeding time.

The Sanctuary is an animal refuge run by Shawn Bishop and Michael Dixon in Matakana, New Zealand. We provide a safe haven for abused and neglected animals, and care for injured or orphaned native birds. A charitable trust has been established for this purpose.
