The death of 30 ducks and one heron at Woodbine Beach Sunday morning has the City of Toronto warning dog owners to keep their pets leashed in the area until the cause of death is determined. Toronto Animal Services removed the deceased wildlife and is working on determining the cause of death. “All dog owners should ensure that dogs are leashed in Woodbine Park, including in the off-leash area, until the cause of death has been determined,” the City said. “It was really kind of surreal seeing such a different array of injury or decay to these birds,” Ingrassia said. The Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative (CWHC) will do post-mortems on the ducks, which should be complete in about a month.
