One of our lead responders, Susan M., joined by Julie B., arrived on scene to find the hen and four ducklings in the basin.
Airfield Operations and SFO Fire were on hand and assisted with the recovery of the babies.
Normally, we would reunite the ducklings with the hen, but because of where they were located, it was safer to send the ducklings to a rehabilitation center. They are now in safe hands at the Peninsula Humane Society's Wildlife Care Center, and doing well.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO ASSISTED IN THIS RESCUE!
But what about the mama?! did they not try to keep her with the babies?
ReplyDeleteThank you for asking. Excellent question. In this situation, being that it was on an airfield it was not safe to leave them in the area.
