Tiny ducklings hiding with mother at Leeds museum rescued

A family of ducks found hiding at a museum in Leeds have been safely returned to the wild.

Footage shows a flock of tiny ducklings and their mother inside a railway cart at Leeds Industrial Museum.

A staff member gently coaxed the family out of the cart while the birds chirped away.

The ducklings travelled back to a pond in style in a plastic box as their mother waddled beside them.

Leeds Museums and Galleries said they took advice from a local wildlife rescue centre before moving the ducklings.
