Police and firefighters were called to the Southern West Motorway near Mount Roskill in Auckland this morning to rescue some baby ducklings who had fallen down a drain.
The duck and ducklings were spotted trying to waddle across the motorway and passers by called for backup.
“Help soon arrived and firefighters and police gave it a good quack trying to reach them, and managed to get them out safely,” Auckland City District Police posted on Facebook.
The ducklings were reunited with their mother and taken to a nearby pond to enjoy the rest of this beautiful Saturday afternoon.
