Answer:
- Ducks are birds and are commonly known as “waterfowl” because they spend so much time in places with water. They love water! They are found everywhere in the world except Antarctica where it is too cold for them.
- Ducks can live from 2-12 years, depending on species.
- Ducks are related to geese and swans, but the duck is the smallest of them all.
- Ducks keep their feathers clean by preening. They do this by putting their heads in funny positions and putting their beaks into their body. They preen themselves very often.
- The duck has water-proof feathers.
- The duck’s feet cannot feel cold even if it swims in icy cold water because their feet have no nerves or blood vessels.
- The eggs of most ducks will hatch within 28 days. The mother duck will keep her ducklings together to protect them from predators. Animals like the hawk, snakes, raccoon, turtles, and large fish will eat the ducklings.
