They All Want To Live

They All Want To Live Rescue. Rehabilitate. Foster. Adopt. Educate. Advocate.

100% of donations go directly to our rescues

We are an all-woman run, foster-based, animal rescue and advocacy organization based in New York. Together, our members bring to the group decades of experience in rescuing, rehabbing, and finding homes for some of the most routinely overlooked, mistreated, and exploited animals – ducks and chickens. Domestic fowl suffer by the billions each year, with few people advocating on their behalf or even

aware of their plight. Over the last several years, we have worked tirelessly to rescue hundreds of birds from abandonment, neglect, and abuse. When working with animals, it becomes immediately apparent that they all have one thing in common – the will to live, and to live their lives in peace, comfort, and safety.

Just realized that referring to Juliet as a “call girl” might not be the best. Juliet is a female call duck, the only domestic ducks smaller than a mallard!

Meet Juliet. ACC NYC New Hope reached out to us about a call duck that was going to be surrendered to the shelter and asked whether we could intercept. Juliet had been abandoned as a duckling in a Petco and taken home by an employee, but their dog and cat were becoming a serious threat to her and even tried to attack her. Juliet is safe with us now and is just the most delightfully tiny and beautiful little girl!

Grateful that the Dodo shared Rudy’s story, the imprinted duckling who was cruelly dumped in Prospect Park. While Rudy’s behavior clearly demonstrated her fear and desperation, ALL dumped ducks experience the same despair—and most do not survive. Don’t buy ducks, don’t hatch ducks, and certainly do not dump ducks!!

Rudy kept chasing people, hoping someone would stop 🐥

After the domestic duckling was abandoned in Brooklyn's Prospect Park, Good Samaritans contacted Wild Bird Fund, who connected them with rescuer Mary Beth Artz of They All Want To Live. Artz brought Rudy to safety, and she's now headed to a permanent home where she'll have a human family and another imprinted duck for company.
