R.I.P. Ozzie

R.I.P. Ozzie, originally uploaded by Lizzie~Belle.

Some of you may remember me posting pictures of this muscovy duck, whose name, as it turns out, was Ozzie. The other day, some teenagers killed Ozzie at the park. This is very upsetting, for many reasons. First, it's just cruel and stupid. Second, kids who harm animals often go on to harm humans. I hope they catch these kids, punish them, and that they learn from their awful behavior that this is wrong.

I will miss Ozzie. He was friendly (I was sitting right next to him when I took this picture) and unusual. It's so sad that the place where he took refuge turned out to not be safe after all. :(
