Lewisville firefighters are being celebrated for going above and beyond the call of duty — this time for a feathered friend in need. PETA has honored members of the Lewisville Fire Department for a duckling rescue, recognizing the crew’s compassion and quick action on behalf of the small animal.

The recognition from PETA highlights the kind of community spirit that makes Lewisville special. While firefighters are known for protecting lives and property, this honor shines a light on the everyday moments of kindness that define a department’s character — and reminds residents that their first responders care about all members of the community, great and small.

It’s a feel-good story that has resonated with locals and animal lovers alike, and a well-deserved pat on the back for the men and women who serve Lewisville every day.
