A duck born with a lame left leg can now waddle around thanks to a specially-tailored wheelchair. Domestic duck Merlin was adopted by Goats of Anarchy Sanctuary in Annandale, New Jersey, USA, in November 2018 but was immobile due to a birth defect in his leg. The sanctuary contacted Walkin’ Pets, a business which designs and fits disabled pets with nifty wheelchairs in Amherst, New Hampshire. Engineers worked to modify the company’s mini wheelchair model, usually used for cats and dogs, to help accommodate Merlin’s physique.
