No Justice: Cynthia Huber Had 153 Ducks And Three Cats Seized From Her Home

[Sugar Cookie]

A North Carolina woman faces animal cruelty charges after deputies seized more than 150 ducks from her property.

Cynthia Huber, 56, faces multiple charges, including nine counts of cruelty to animals.

Deputies seized 153 ducks and three cats from her home after executing a search warrant on Dec. 20.

The sheriff’s office started investigating after a local veterinarian contacted authorities and said the suspect refused medical care for a sick cat.

WWAY reported that the ducks were either disabled or injured and one of them was illegal to have. Two rescue groups in New Hanover County took the animals.

The Easter I was 2 years old, my parents put two baby ducklings in my Easter basket (I was allergic to cats, dogs, etc). They were adorable, and I was thrilled to finally have a pet. They quickly grew into huge white ducks, almost as tall as I was. I insisted we buy a pink jeweled collar and a leash, and I would proudly walk my pet duck up and down our street.
