been in that situation with a goose that was next to the ramp. normally wed shoot him but there was a walk going on. so we stayed there for half an hour. he kept diving and didnt want the dog to go in and not be able to fight it so we scared it toward to the shore and dog could find it so i had to get out and had to snap his neck. i think duckmasta did the right thing trying to stay with the law cripples are hard.
