Most Victorians care about wildlife. Most Victorians hate animal cruelty. Yet Victoria is one of the few states left that still allows a recreational duck and quail shouting season. For 83 days each year, duck and quail shooters can run around dressed like Rambo, blasting small birds out of the sky for fun. 

 But what happens after the shots are fired? Listen to our interview with duck rescuer Nat Kopas from Geelong Duck Rescue and learn about the harsh reality that rescuers face, the heartbreaking search for wounded birds shot and left to suffer, the harassment on and off the water, the pollution, and underlying it all is 3 months of constant cruelty.

 What happens out there stays with you - recreational duck shooting must end. 
 The campaign continues year-round. If you’d like to learn more or get involved please follow Geelong Duck Rescue on socials and check their website:
