New York, June20 (ANI): A traffic jam ensued in China after a farmer holding just a long cane herded his flock of 5000 ducks through a main street in Taizhou, Zhejiang.

He and another man guided the ducks more than half a mile to a local feeding pond, as part of an annual tradition in the province, the New York Daily News reported.

According to Australia's news.com, the farmer said that he did not lose a single duck during the half-mile walk.

The city of Taizhou is on the eastern coast of the Zhejiang province, about 200 miles south of Shanghai, and has a population of nearly 6 million. (ANI)
