Firefighters rescue ducklings stuck on Man O’ War

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – They say a mother’s love can move mountains, but it can’t always cut through Man O’ War traffic.

That’s where firefighters come in handy, at least they did for one mama duck.

Lexington’s Ladder Company 7 posted pictures on their Facebook page after a unique rescue on Monday.

Their post says a mother duck was frantically running back and forth, narrowly missing being hit on Man O’ War, as she tried to get to her trapped babies, who had fallen into two separate manholes.

The ducklings could be heard calling out from the holes.

Firefighters successfully saved all 10 and reunited them with their relieved mama.
