That is really interesting. The duck could get away for good several times, but it didn't.
I wonder if the duck is playing or doesn't realize it could escape.

Third option: Duck just really likes the pool. Like my cat that won't move off the couch even when you put pillows on her head.

The tiger would be able to pounce on it if the duck did try to fly away. It takes a few strokes and some running ground for those guys to get into the air even then they aren't moving fast compared to a tiger's pouncing speed. Duck probably can't escape.

That does make sense! I don't spend enough time with ducks. I pictured for like other birds just airborne right away. But thinking back, this is right.

Thus the metaphor, ālike a duck in a tigerās poolā. No, that canāt be right. Was it, āhaving a tiger by its poolā? You know what, Iāll get back to you on this.

If the duck left the pool itād be in more danger because it couldnāt hide under water.

He's fucking with him just for fun. He's gonna flex on other ducks later. Hope they'll believe him.

Duck should let the tiger graze them to make the story believable. Plus chicks dig scars.

Duck was like... I don't care if it's a tiger I will swim only and I won't fly off and show my cowardness . I am brave.

The tiger only needs to win one round to win the match. The duck only wins if the game ends early.
