Releasing Captive Raised Ducks

I know the laws may be different in different states and that you might only be able to answer this question about Illinois. That is OK. Is it legal to release into the wild wood ducks or mallards that have been hatched in captivity? Thanks for your help.

You will need to ask someone in CT's Wildlife Division. I am not familiar with CT's policy on releasing captive bred ducks. You can find contact information at: http://www.ct.gov/dep/cwp/view.asp?a=2690&q=322420&depNav_GID=1511#wildlife
