Look: Virginia animal control officer rescues ducklings from storm drain

April 2 (UPI) — An animal control officer in Virginia climbed into a manhole to rescue several baby ducks that fell into the drain.

Colonial Heights Animal Control shared photos on social media showing the officer climbing into the manhole on Wednesday and handing the ducklings up to a person on the surface.

“Shout out to Officer Delgado for going above and beyond today,” the post said. “Jumping down into a drain to rescue some fallen baby mallards.”

Officials wrote the incident was “definitely not your average call, but just goes to show — you never know what kind of situations you’ll end up in.”
