On January 28 in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, a young girl and her Bichon Frise were playing outdoors. Driven by the girl's curiosity and the dog's energetic nature, the two excitedly began chasing a flock of ducks. The sudden "pursuit" left the ducks panicked and scrambling in all directions.

Amid the chaotic chase, one duck displayed extraordinary cleverness. Cornered by the dog with nowhere to escape, it suddenly collapsed to the ground, lying completely still as if lifeless. This unexpected act left the dog momentarily bewildered. After inspecting the "playing dead" duck for a while, the dog seemed to lose interest and turned its attention to other ducks still fleeing.

Once the duck confirmed it was safe, it quickly sprang to its feet and ran off, successfully evading the chase with its clever "playing dead" tactic.
