Wilma

Wilma was born and raised on the Sanctuary by a pair of wild mallards, and from an early age developed a wing deformity that meant she could not fly. She is quite an outspoken duck, and is often leading the other ducks along, quacking loudly, and foraging throughout the day with them for seeds, grass and insects.

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.
