Why in the world didn’t the hunter’s wife kill it when she found it alive<\/a>? Why take it to an animal hospital?<\/p>\n

A duck in the US state of Florida has survived gunshot wounds and a two-day stint in a refrigerator.
\nA hunter shot the duck, wounding it in the wing and leg. Believing the bird was dead, he left it in his fridge at his home in Tallahassee.
\nThe hunter’s wife got a fright when she opened the fridge and the duck lifted its head, a local veterinarian said.
\nStaff at the Goose Creek Animal Sanctuary who are treating the bird said it has a 75% chance of survival.
\nThe plucky duck was taken first to a local animal hospital, and then to an animal sanctuary for more specialised treatment. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
