We have a group of mallards at the Northwood Park in Spenard. My wife and I think they are starving because in fresh snow we see no other footprints of others. We started feeding them dog food, which was recommended online, then we found duck food at Alaska Mill and Feed. We are also concerned about the cold weather this year and are wondering if we should put out some hay or straw for them to sit on instead of the snow and ice. I did call in to the biologist Dan Rosenberg, but haven't heard back yet. Any thoughts here are welcome as we would like to see the ducks best welfare addressed without killing them.
