Kamloops Fire Rescue crews had a great little rescue on May 11, 2026, after Station 7 responded to a public service call for 8 ducklings trapped inside a storm drain.

With momma duck nearby keeping a close watch, crews safely rescued all 8 ducklings and reunited them back where they belong.

A happy ending for this feathered family! 🦆🚒

KFR and BC Wildfire Service have been closely monitoring the situation. With the unseasonably warm temperatures coming this weekend it’s only going to get worse. Currently the drought code is moderate. We want to remind the residents of Kamloops burning permits have ended, there is zero burning allowed in the City of Kamloops. Please enjoy the backcountry but be mindful of the conditions. If you see smoke call 911.
