Leave Room for Ducklings (What, Too Soon?)

Fox 13 Seattle

A group of visitors at Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo witnessed a brown bear scarfing down several ducklings in her habitat last week. 

In a TikTok video posted by Rachelle, the bear, named Juniper, is seen watching the mother duck and her ducklings in the water before diving in and devouring the ducklings one at a time on April 23. 

According to Rachelle, this happened during her daughter’s birthday party, where there were several children and adults. More (including video of the alleged duckling scarfing)

  1. “That’s Smokey the Bear, dear. When he’s not making forest fire ads, he’s devouring ducklings, fawns, and little baby bunny rabbits. Do you want your chicken nuggets now?”

  2. @Goldenfoxx — The problem isn’t with this, the zoo party. The problem is that all over the country, heck, the world, parents are plopping their kids down in front of TVs with virtually nonstop shows full of cute smiling fuzzy cuddly anthropomorphized baby animals. How can those poor kids not form attractive emotional bonds? Rather than reality, the kids are being conditioned with pure fantasy, then when reality hits, it’s pure trauma.

  4. I had my kid killing quackers as soon as they could get a hunting license. Of course we did practice shoot and release. Or was it Coot first and ask questions later. Hell I can’t remember.

    Ducks don’t taste like chicken. They taste like ducks. And they’re damn yummy.
    Also I’ve watched Large Mouth Bass feed on ducks on two occasions. They just suck them right off the tp of the water.

  5. We gonna sue the bear, the zoo and the city over this even though we continued to video while it happened instead of ushering the little kids away like actual parents…..

  6. It’s eat (in one form or another) or die for every living thing. Can’t blame the bear for grabbing a snack when it’s there for the taking.

    I think most humans, given the choice, would rather eat than have sex. A good evening meal will last till morning. For me, sex lasts for about five seconds. Then, I’m ready for pizza.

  7. I think that bear needs a REAL meal. Where are some of those women who should rather be stuck in the woods with a bear instead of a man? I’m sure there are plenty to choose from in Seattle.

  8. @Uncle Al: Those kids are being conditioned to be controlled through that phone. Stick a fork in us, we are done. After my children’s generation are gone, game is over. It’s frightening to see how stupid they b are.

  9. When daughter Bridget was three we were at Northwest Trek and on the tram with us were a bunch of lefty bird brains. They were all talking about how beautiful the Canada geese were and had been relying on Bridget to spot animals that weren’t easy to pick out. She knew where to look, what to look for and then would tell them more than the gal hired to run the narrative. On the topic of Canada geese, after agreeing that they really are beautiful sho followed up with and they have meat inside if you take all their feathers off.

    I have no idea where that came from, we had been in the coach for an hour and she had been telling them all about deer, elk and at least a half dozen other animals that she had first hand experience butchering.

  11. PETA won’t be happy.
    Welcome to the reality of wild animals.
    Citified, screen addicted kids think we’re mean for hunting.
    My kids used to pretend to shoot deer on tv because they’d seen dead ones hanging in our tree.

  12. About a year after the movie came out, I remember a friend’s 7 y/o son remarking after a caribou hunt, “Gee Dad, that was fun. Just like ‘Dances with Wolves'”.

    Kids raised in the Alaskan bush don’t have that Disney perspective.
