        Replying to @nytimes

        Caring for others’ offspring is found throughout nature. It’s called altruism, and it’s not just for people. Wildlife biologists (and Republicans) have long been confused by this behavior but it increases a species’ chances for survival even as it puts a strain on the individual.

        #StrongerTogether wasn't just a campaign slogan, it appears to be an evolutionary principle.

        This hen is a teacher, simple as that. I did not know ducks started school as soon as July, though...

        And the mother duck knows where all 76 of the babies are. Yet the US government can’t find hundreds of children .

        Wow what a pic. Thanks to Sarah Mervosh and Brent Cizek @nytimes for sharing. It seems Ducklings are more born disciplined than us.

        May God bless that hen for looking after them. The sad thing is that it seems something happened to the parents of a lot of those chicks. That would be the only reason they are following her. I hope they thrive.
