A duck with a hook caught his mouth was rescued in Michigan
Volunteers from the Michigan Duck Rescue and Sanctuary arrived at the scene and saved him from any more danger after a call about a distressed bird stranded on the icy Detroit River, which was posted on Facebook.
The alert read: "We have an extreme emergency and I’m looking for help with anyone near the downtown area near the Riverwalk.
In reply to a concerned commenter, the animal rescue organisation confirmed the little guy being brought to safety.
They wrote: “No answer from several numbers,” in reference to the coast guard, “But we got him” using a ladder and a tow rope.
After his mouth injuries are healed, they intend to release the duck back into the wild.
