Woodstock Farm Sanctuary Gives Special Needs Duck Second Chance
Originally part of a school hatching project, Kiwi the duck was born in January 2020, but unfortunately, was attacked by a predator early on in her life. The attack, sadly, left her unable to walk due to a spinal injury. Though her original owners brought her to various vets, her issue was not diagnosed, and that s when
Woodstock Farm Sanctuary got involved and began the process of getting Kiwi on the move.
Kiwi s owners reached out to Woodstock Sanctuary in September of 2020, and by October, the staff at the sanctuary had welcomed her home to the farm. Imaging done on Kiwi showed the staff that the spinal injury was preventing her from walking, that in addition to low bone density making her more prone to breaking bones.
With a little help from her new wheels, and a lot of love from her caregivers at Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, Kiwi the duck is on the move and loves showing off her walking skills.

Ever since the Hilton Hotels unveiled its first vegan suite inside the Bankside location in London, England in 2019, other hotels and vacation resorts have been following suit in an effort to accommodate the growing number of vegan and eco-conscious travelers. Stateside, these seven hotels will help every vegan slumber a little more soundly.
