China: Ducks Killed After Pecking at Feed Bags Causes Grain Stack to Collapse on Farm

This is the shocking moment that a group of Chinese ducks were accidentally crushed when a pile of stored corn suddenly collapsed inside a farm warehouse. On December 21, 2025, in Yancheng, Jiangsu, the video captured a group of ducks sneaking toward stacked feed bags filled with corn inside a grain storage area. The ducks gathered beneath the pile and pecked at the lower bags, which gradually weakened the structure holding the corn in place. Moments later, the entire stack lost balance and collapsed downward. The falling corn bags and grain pile suddenly buried several ducks underneath, leaving some of them trapped and unable to escape. According to the farm owner, eight ducks had been found dead after the cleanup was completed.
