Wow, I certainly hope someone is caught and prosecuted. We raised ducks on our acreage for years when my daughters were little and what a joy they were (not to mention the eggs they gave us). Sad that people like this pose as part of humanity.

My first thought is that it was some animal, but the pics clearly show that this was a human animal. I hope they nail this/these guys. It is beyond sick.

What's really disturbing is that most violent offenders start their criminal resume by harminng animals. Animal victims are usually defenseless (as demonstrated by the news report, above) and animals lack many of the protections of society. Humans will be the next victims unless someone stops the perp.
