This is the moment a duck with special trainers on its webbed feet is walked along a city pavement towards the underground by its young owner who reportedly keeps it as a pet.

Bruna the female duck was filmed walking towards a tube station in the central Mexican capital Mexico City and other images show the waterfowl waiting on the platform.

The images were shared on Twitter by netizen ‘La Mala’ who said the duck wears special trainers to prevent its feet from blistering.

Bruna was spotted at several tube stations as well walking around city streets with its family.

Netizen ‘Alexvroa’ commented: “Those trainers! This duck is the best thing of the day.”

‘DNoctum’ said: “I love the surreal things you find in tube stations. Thanks for the images, they made me smile.”

According to local media, laws state that service animals such as guide dogs are allowed on the Mexico City Metro, but many residents keep their pets hidden in bags when taking the tube.

It is unclear whether rules allow for waterfowl in footwear.
