The adult blue duiker injured her flanks when she got caught in a fence.

A BEAUTIFUL adult, blue duiker arrived at the Centre for Rehabilitation of Wildlife (Crow) after being chased by dogs about a week ago.

Crow’s operations director, Clint Halkett-Siddall, said the duiker was eventually caught in a resident’s home fence which injured her flanks – the sides of her body.

“The blue duiker is a threatened and protected species. After she arrived at Crow, she was treated by our clinic nurse with tender, loving care and was released at a Private Game Reserve in the Gillitts area. We are thankful to those who donate so we are able to continue our work,” said Halkett-Siddall.
