Young children can get into trouble pretty easily, and one scenario in the northern suburbs required the police to step in.
All of these 11 ducklings fell into a storm drain in Skokie on Monday.
Animal control officers were called in to make the rescue, as the mother duck looked on.
The officers decided to move the ducklings away from the storm drain, so they walked them across the street to the Evanston golf course, along with the mother.
Their big adventure ended at a little pond, and it looks like dad even stopped by to keep an eye on his ducklings.
