Most animals do, just people refuse to give them the time of day. Personally, forming a close loving relationship with an animal is one of the nicest and most wholesome things we can do during our short time on this planet. We got a rescue cat about 18 months and we've become so close, it's so beautiful. She's so chilled and just loves cuddles. If more people accepted animals in their life then they might find more beauty in those moments.

Nature would have weeded out special ducks like Sunny. Just like how Nature also designed human beings to be inherently aggressive, competitive, selfish and warlike. I sometimes think the very designs of Nature is what we as a human race, have to eventually transcend and grow out of. Or else we will forever be selfish and aggressive entities, with this animalistic emptiness and fear and aggressiveness in our hearts, that make it impossible for us to be truly at peace within ourselves. Endless wars are self-created and fought, due to this inner emptiness all human beings are designed with. If we really want a better world, we have to find a way to transcend our primal animal instincts, designed into our minds.

Watching this brings tears in my eyes because I too saved a crested duck. In the year 1995 I found a duckling in an abandoned nest during a heavy thunderstorm at the moment that she was born. She lay there in her broken eggshell struggling against the cold rain.I couldn't see her suffer, I didn't want she would die from the cold. So - I picked her out the nest and took her with me. I gave her the necessary support, so she survived the ordeal. She became my best buddy and an amiable little critter, full of joy and naughtiness in the good sense! All the following years - every day without exception - we took care for her. Unfortunately she became ill. We did all we could to save her but her situation became hopeless. With much pain in our heart we had to put her down. She died in my arms on September 14, 2009 at 09:10 am local time. She became fourteen years - three months and twenty days old. She was the best thing that's ever happened to me. She made my life worth living. Sleep soft Pipke! - I wish you the best with Sunny, that he may live a long life!

Its not really judgement in the human sense.

🥰😁🐣I love just about everything about this story (except for the medical issues and rejection of other ducks that Sunny faced)! Sunny is adorable and he clearly has a very close the bond with his family! I have gotten ducks from tractor supply in the past so that resonated with me as well! The idea of a “blind date” is cute too! Great story and video!

I loved this! So many animals, if given the chance to live instead of being euthanized because of disabilities could be just like Sunny. They all deserve a chance at life, thank you for giving Sunny that chance. I can't imagine a more loving, sweet, and remarkable feathered friend for your family and animals alike than this amazing little duck who looks extra cute with that tuft of feathers on his head!

[@quinntastrophy4189]

He is very cute, however the mutation that gave him the tuft also resulted in his skull not fully forming to cover his brain, leading to those struggles. It’s an important reminder for us to prioritize the health and quality of life of animals over breeding for aesthetic.

[@annebaglio9179]

Agree. Is it no wonder that some wouldn't think twice of euthanizing a precious animal when they don't give a dam* about killing a human.

[@mavicityrelayson2924]

Agree. So many animals would be happier living their lives instead of being slaughtered. They all deserve a chance at life especially because most animals are slaughtered at only a few months, just babies, really.

can’t blame the other ducklings, though-it’s their only defense against diseased ducklings. It may appear cruel but it’s a protective response that benefits the clutch

This story touched me so deeply, I have tears down my face. I have always rescued animals no one wants, including special needs. I just lost my 19 yr old special needs dog, Peggy a month ago and it broke my heart. Shortly before she passed, a blind puppy literally showed up at our door. After trying to find her owners, no one came forward, so we kept her and named her Annie. I am not on instagram nor facebook but if anyone knows these beautiful people, please tell them I am so happy to share this earth with such angels. I am so happy they gave Sunny the love and care he deserves. Much Love, from Texas

I bawled through this whole video. Sunny reminds me so much of my duck Taco. Taco wasn't blind but did have the same genetic condition (we also acquired Taco from TSC). Tacos fluffy spot was bigger than Sunnys, it pressed on the brain and caused balance issues so Taco had to have a wheel chair. She died in 2019 and I still miss her so much. 😔 I hope Sunny lives a long happy life.
