The concern for the likely abandoned mallard duck Charlie at the Old Alster Canal in Sülfeld persists. Several attempts to capture the bird have failed. Even the fire department's intervention proved unsuccessful.
In Sülfeld, a municipality in the Segeberg district of Schleswig-Holstein, a lone mallard duck is drawing attention. The bird, named Charlie, is presumed to have been abandoned and resides at the Old Alster Canal. Local residents and animal lovers are worried about its well-being, as it appears to be on its own.
Several rescue operations have been attempted to capture Charlie and ensure its safety. However, all efforts failed. The duck cleverly evaded the attempts and remained at large. To provide professional assistance, the fire department was even called in. This measure also ended without success, as reports from the area confirm.
The situation remains unresolved, and observations of the duck continue. It is unclear if further actions are planned, but the ongoing concern highlights the challenges in rescuing wild animals in urban waterways. Experts generally advise caution with suspected abandoned animals to avoid stressing the wildlife.
