A viral photo of a dead duckling floating in the algae-infested Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has surfaced on social media, while the cause of death remains unknown.

The one-year-old was found in the pool at a hotel complex in Lajares, a village in northern Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands where her family had been on holiday

A dead duck was found floating in the Reflecting Pool Sunday ... days after workers were seen dumping hydrogen peroxide into the water. Rob Crilly -- a political journalist who previously covered the White House for the Washington Examiner -- shared two photos of the deceased animal to his X account on Sunday.
