Kind Man's Persistent Attempt to Help Ducklings Escape From Pool Is Everything

Kind Man's Persistent Attempt to Help Ducklings Escape From Pool Is Everything originally appeared on PetHelpful. No matter whether kids walk on two legs or are furry or feathered, they have a knack for finding new adventures. Sometimes that curious nature can get them into hot water, much like a flock of ducklings who decided to take a dip in a swimming pool. Recently, @lindseykathleen1 shared a TikTok video featuring a few spirited ducklings who wanted to have a pool day. When mama dove in to collect them, she eventually realized she needed some help to get her family back on dry land. Luckily, a kind man stopped to offer an assist. Though, this wasn't a simple rescue. You'll say, 'Aw,' and laugh out loud as you watch his multiple attempts to help these ducklings escape the pool. I guess it's true: You can depend on the kindness of strangers! 'My sweet husband saved the day. I just love watching mommas do their thing. She was never giving up and knew when to let us help,' @lindseykathleen1 wrote in the TikTok post. As shown in the video, these duckling jumped into the pool, probably to cool off. Mama saw them and went after her flock, gathering them together so she could protect them. After all, who wouldn't want to keep an eye on their babies with strangers nearby? It seems like she was swimming around looking for ways to get them out of the pool. Thankfully, a man would find a way to help her family, but it would take a few tries to get them out first idea was to just pick up the ducklings one at a time and place them on the ground. Unfortunately, '[h]e would get one out and [they] would jump right back in,' explained the video captions. At one point, mama was pretty stressed. 'She was so tired and really started to panic,' mentions the video. That was until this man and his family came up with a plan B. They scooped up the ducklings individually and gathered them into an open tote bag. Then they grabbed mom and released this family back on land. Phew! Ducklings cannot get out of a pool easily, so them being in one can be dangerous or even deadly for them. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, ducks may not be able to fly out of a pool or make it over the ledge of a pool. They could even drown if they get tired or exhausted before finding their way out of the pool. That's why it's so heartwarming that this man and his family made sure to aid this family — no matter how many tries it took. I'm so glad these ducklings and their mom are safe!
