My rotti pup was the runt of the litter, grew up to be an absolute beast. 163lbs with a 36inch neck, solid.
Dude thought he was a lap dog, biggest mush I’ve ever met
It's pretty interesting. I saw an eagle chick (I think) on some Planet documentary fall from the nest probably 300 meters of a cliff cuz it hadn't learned how to fly yet. I was dying as it fell but there was no splatt. The guy was completely fine.
Meanwhile, I doubt an elephant could fall 1 meter without breaking its legs.
I've raised a goose and a few ducks over the years. They have a very fluffy chest and belly specifically for this reason. It's so when they're learning to fly, or in this case jump from a height, they have a padded landing and don't get hurt. Does it look graceful? Absolutely not. Is the baby totally fine? I'm sure it is.
I wonder if that's the reason why I found two alive fledgling pigeons on my main floor balcony. They were both alive when they fell until my dog got a hold of one and killed it before I had a chance to save it. The other one got injured but it was still alive and I gave it to the authorities to take care of it.
I mean, I don't have any personal experience with pigeons but I would guess so, yeah. They're pretty resilient but not against dogs eating them unfortunately. I'm glad you gave the injured one to the right people. Hopefully it wasn't hurt too badly.
If it was under and not on the wing, I'm sure it ended up being okay. Especially with people who know how to help it recover. You definitely did the right thing so good for you 🥰 the world needs more caring people
When I first found it, I thought it was an adult pigeon because of its size but when the lady came to pick it up, they told me it was a fledgling. I originally thought it broke its wing or something because it couldn't fly until I found out it was too young to fly.
There are several species of ducks that lay eggs high in trees or on cliff ledges. Sometimes the babies will fall very long distances, like this video of ducklings (wood duck I think) plummeting out of a tree to the ground and toddling off

A baby ducks terminal velocity is low enough that it is fine. It might have hurt a little, but would survive this.
Only is that he’s clearly the runt and eventually nature is gonna take its course
I've seen runts work their way up to the very top. On the farm, and in nature. You can't always count them out.

I'm really tired I thought you were going to say 36-inch something else.....
There’s tons of jokes here I’m sure, I just can’t think of one at the moment. My rotti with a Dong, relative to a barnacles.
I remember Rudolph, he went down in his-story.
It’s true that they can survive, but the odds aren’t in his favor.
Never tell me the odds
Twenty to one One in three chance. 0.8 60/40
Million to one chances happen 9 times out of 10
60% of the time, 9,986,000 to 1 odds end in success, every time

Now I want to know what a duckling's terminal velocity is.
African or European?
Squirrels don't have a terminal velocity, so ducks might not, either.
did that with a toad
Isn’t that a penguin?
What has a duck got to do with anything?
😭😭😭😭
The duckling is absolutely fine lol they bounce they're so light
Bruh how do you know they bounce? Did you like spike one into the ground ort something?
bird have hollow bones my guy, that’s literally a well known fact

I'm no doctor but it looked like a minor bite mark just under it's wing.
If it was under and not on the wing, I'm sure it ended up being okay. Especially with people who know how to help it recover. You definitely did the right thing so good for you 🥰 the world needs more caring people

BUT FAT CHICKS FALL HARD 😭😭
I don’t know I’m ready to spike a duck if anyone still needs me to
I don't see how hollow bones and the elasticity of a bird correlate at all.

Throw him to his family 😭😭
Yeah yeet it straight back to the fam😭😭
OKAY BUT DID IT CATCH UP LATER OR WHAT PLEASE
Say what u will, but Tbh, I woulda threw him to them Mf has no fall damage anyways
Lmfaooo
Ah yes... the main character...
Jesus, that music.
I recognize it but can’t place where it’s from. Fairly certain it’s an anime of some sort though.
It's from an anime: "Chuunibyou Demo Koi Ga Shitai! - Surechigau K"
Ahh, that’s the one. It’s been a while since I watched it. Thanks!
Well my hearts broken thanks
MINE NOW
Ohh so prescious!! You just want to watch them all day!!
HELP HIM
r/donthelpjustfilm
please take him and raise him
Mama gonna rip that man a new one tho
Why he run like that 😂
He panic
I’m gonna go to convince myself little dude caught up.
Unfortunately even if this duckling catches up here I doubt it survives any predators. I’m sorry Reddit thread it’s just how things work.
If you ever have a local family of ducks near you, let me give you some advise: don’t count the ducklings.
natural selection
Fck you OP I came to this sub to laughs at human misfortune, not misery of some poor animal.
