Quack quack, they'll be back

Ducks are to banned from a village pond in Wales. Ananova.com reports that the mallards have been branded a menace by the council because they eat all the frogspawn. As a result there are no frogs, newts or sticklebacks in the pond. Villagers are furious that their beloved ducks are being relocated, and an RSPB spokesperson admitted: “The main problem with ducks is that if you relocate them there is nothing to stop them from flying back.”
