Make way for a duckling search
Sculpture is stolen from Public Garden


It may be spring, but no one expected this duckling to be walking off on its own just yet.

Pack, the second-to-last of Mrs. Mallard's storied eight ducklings in the cherished
"Make Way for Ducklings" sculpture in the Public Garden, was stolen sometime between
Sunday night and yesterday morning, cut off at the base of its bronze webbed feet.

City officials consider the theft no prank, and have threatened to bring criminal charges of
larceny of public art against anyone who stole the prized duckling.

"Not only are the Make Way for Ducklings loved by everyone, but they are public art,"
Mayor Thomas M. Menino said yesterday in a strongly worded statement. "This act is not a prank;
it is a crime. We would strongly encourage anyone with information to please come forward to
assist with Pack's safe return."
