Woman Takes 10 Orphaned Ducklings To A Pond, Then Something Amazing Happens

June 18, 2018

Last week, an animal control officer rescued ten ducklings who had wandered onto a busy roadway in Southgate, Michigan. Unfortunately, mom was nowhere to be found which meant the chance of survival for these babies was not good.

Officer Diane Desrosiers decided to take them to a nearby pond and that's when "the most precious kind of thing I've ever witnessed" occured, according to Chris Grandy who filmed the video.

"Our pet duck, who we had named Stella, had hatched her family of nine 2 weeks ago near our cart shed, was swimming at the time," Grandy added. "As soon as the officer put the babies in the water, without hesitation, Stella left her family and welcomed the new ones! Way to go Stella!"
