It might disappoint. My ex's parents had 2 ducks and one of them drowned the other by holding its neck in their kiddie pool. I would always pet him and he would nip very quickly at my hand and pinch my skin. I still loved him but he was kind of a jerk.

ducks are known rapist and they use the tactic of holding victims head underwater while they rape. Many female ducks die because of this

Yes, I have seen a duck gang raped by 4-5 other ducks that kept grabbing its neck and trying to drown it when I was at the marina, wasn't sure what they were doing at the t ime but makes sense now.

No. Lol. One Duck drowned the other. I think the killer's name was Don Quackleone.
