Oh daum, that's like Pocahontas in the flesh right there.

You mean a ducks' natural habitat is on a busy highway standing on the corpses of their run-over brothers and sisters whilst their mother is a twisted mess near the curb? My bad.
.... eugh, sorry for being rude, but I felt like if only I could have started walking to uni sooner, I would have found those other ducklings still alive. But the best I could do was stand on the road as Warlemming picked up the ducklings and put them in my empty school bag, whilst cars drove around me. He took the ducklings to our place, and I picked up my books and phone and just carried them in my arms to uni. I managed to get to class only 5 minutes late too, I'm like Super Man or something ^^

Or just Wonderwoman?
Nice story though and greatly done, must would just have passed by and not give it a second thought at all.
So sad about the ducklings... at least you saved 2. :c I know what you're saying about wishing you had gotten there a little sooner, but you can't think like that or you'll go crazy. You did a lot more than anybody else would just by helping them.
Though, what are you going to do with them? >.> At least ducklings are fairly common as pets so you can probably find some info on how to take care of them temporarily!
Luckily it seems like ducklings can feed themselves instead of needing to be fed by hand. My friend tried to take care of a baby dove and it ended up dying when she accidently put the food in the wind pipe instead of the trachea... it was really sad. >.< I did see this when I did a quick search though "If they have food water must be present or they can choke to death. Ducklings will take a mouthful of food and then take a drink in order to swallow."
