TORONTO -- A remarkable story of nature versus nurture played out this summer on a quiet lake in northern Wisconsin.two loons somehow came into contact with a mallard duckling that had become separated from its family. Instead of attacking it, as most loons would, this pair decided to rear it.about the peculiar family.
“She was stunned to find the female slowly swimming about with a young mallard duckling on its back,” Piper wrote. The researchers speculate that the family was borne out of a case of perfect timing. The loons had just hatched an egg of their own and “were predisposed to find and care for anything that even remotely resembled a newly-hatched loon.” Mallard ducklings, meanwhile, tend to accept the first animal-like object they encounter as a parent – making this particular duckling, which was “facing certain death” after having been seemingly abandoned by its mother, ready to attach itself to the loons.

Last paragraph in your article quotes 20 year old Emma Hamilton who is undecided on where to turn. The odds are likely she stays home on Oct 21. Emma is a bell weather.
