We (Clint and Irene) rounded up a Mallard Duck and her nine ducklings when they were chased by a dog. The mother flew onto the highway and ended up on the other side of the road. She had a broken wing and broken leg. Her ducklings ran into a ditch which was covered with thick weeds. It took us two hours to find the 2 day old ducklings! The mother recovered from her injuries and she and her babies were eventually released to the wild when the ducklings were full grown.
