Day of the Ducks
Saturday, July 12, 2003

Any day now, a consignment of thousands of rubber duckies and other bathtub toys will beach on the shores of New England, completing an 11 year journey across three oceans since that fateful day their container fell into the sea. BBC reports on how the ducks' odyssey nears end

The ducks were among 350 containers which rolled off a ship in high seas - environmentalists are now trying to use their amazing journey to highlight the problem of overboard cargo.
