duck

More than a punchline: the story behind the lonely Michigan duck that made Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update" segment.

Disgusting.

A mother duck, known for nesting in an East Grand Rapids restaurant's flower box was tragically hit by a car Friday night. Restaurant workers rallied to save her eggs.

Today on Segment 16, the police are looking for some jerks who intentionally injured and killed some geese on the lake. Also, there's a lawsuit over the use of legally(?) recorded audio of a police call.

On Tuesday morning the City of Grand Rapids received a call to 3-1-1 from a resident who discovered ducklings that had fallen through a grate. City employees responded quickly and rescued the ducklings.

There's that saying that a dog is man's best friend, but this duck is here to tell you that ducks can be your best pal, too. Watch as this pet duck patiently waits in the front seat of the car as kids get off the school bus, awaiting the arrival of his owner. When he finally sees his buddy, just the sight of him makes his little duck brain go cuckoo.
