Mother duck in panic over lost ducklings

Commuters in Salt Lake City on Wednesday stopped their vehicles on Highland Drive - not for traffic, but for a mother duck who lost her babies in a storm drain.

A commuter saw the mother duck hysterically walking across the street, and decided to stop and help. Another passerby soon joined and the two spotted several baby ducks stuck in a nearby storm drain.



Rescuers pulled the baby ducks up from the storm drain, but catching the hysterical mother was a bit tougher because it kept running out into the street - where cars passed.

The mother duck was eventually captured and reunited with her ducklings. The birds were later taken to a pond - far from the dangers of rush-hour traffic.

Hi there! Thanks for an educative post. It happens rarely that there is something interesting to read on the Internet. A variety of animal testing essay topics implies considering different opinions of the pros and cons of those experiments. It is important to ensure the presence of alternative ideas to prevent all kinds of bias and ensure having different perspectives on the same issue. More details here.
