Photos taken on 27 February 2022. Taken from Wikipedia, "The official mascot for the Anaheim Ducks is an anthropomorphized duck by the name of Wild Wing. He has been the team's mascot since its inaugural season, and his name was chosen through fan voting. He wears a Ducks jersey with the number 93 on the back, referring to the year the Ducks became an NHL team." ( visit link) Taken from the Smithsonian website, "Wild Wing, the duck mascot of the hockey team the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, California is seen standing in a defensive position in a hockey uniform. He has an emblem on his chest and holds a hockey puck in his lowered proper left hand. In his proper right hand is a hockey stick with the words "MIGHTY DUCKS" on the blade.
