Photos: 10 ducklings rescued from storm drain in Bay Area

(KRON) — The Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department says a firefighter crew ducked into a tight storm drain on Thursday to rescue 10 ducklings that were stuck.

LPFD did not detail the timing and location of the incident in a social media post, but said the “quick thinking and gentle hands” of its crew safely reunited the ducks with their mother as neighborhood residents watched.

It’s not clear how the ducklings got trapped in the first place.

LPFD added, “Big thanks to our crew for going above and beyond to serve all members of the community — feathers and all!”
