"The RSPCA today launches a national public awareness campaign entitled
"Duck shooting - kill the sport" which seeks to ban the 'sport' of
recreational duck shooting.

RSPCA national president, Dr Wirth said at the launch that between 594,000
and 900,000 ducks are crippled or wounded annually in the name of 'sport' -
and the RSPCA demands the 'sport' be killed off."
