A Florida hunter brought the duck home after shooting it. His wife put the duck in the fridge, but some time later it moved when she opened the door-giving her a scare. Instead of becoming dinner, the family took the duck to the vet, with a fractured wing and broken leg.
The lucky duck is expected to make a full recovery.
Apparently the young duck has a low metabolism and closed it's eyes after the hunter shot it.
Hopefully it will have quite a story to tell it's grand ducklings someday.
