I’m looking for options on ducks specifically. As in the bird. What’s your hottest duck take?
I miss feeding them bread and wish I’d never found out it was bad for them and can mess up their migratory patterns.
Ducks float. Because of this fact, they can be used in a NIST traceable system of weights and measures to assess witches.
They taste good on a ham sandwich
they are dirtier and smell worse than chickens
That although the ducks at the duck pond are free and can be taken home… Its difficult to keep them at your home unless you have a tempting duck habitat i. e. a pond and lots of grubs, worms and reed plants.
Please don’t take the free ducks home if you plan on keeping them in your spare room. They will not be happy and will let you know this in there own duckish manor.
I stopped reading when you said free ducks. Looking up my local pond right now
I was shocked when I learned that male ducks have corkscrew penises and that ducks mostly reproduce through gangrape 😳
These facts changed my opinion of ducks
I witnessed this once at a lake in New Zealand, when a bunch of ducks were gang raping this one female. My girlfriend at the time demanded that I go into the lake and try and break it up.
Yeah nah, that’s their hood. I ain’t getting involved.
Yep doesn’t get more fucked up than this one, it’s up there with dragonflies.
What’s up with dragonflies?
Their mating ritual is brutal
Dragonfly mating is a competitive “contact sport” where a male identifies a female, subdues her in flight, and then links to her so they form a wheel formation to mate. Because females may mate with multiple partners, males may also scoop out or remove earlier sperm and guard the female afterward.
The first step in the mating process is for the male dragonfly to subdue the female. The typical scenario looks like this. While in flight, the male approaches the female from behind, grabs hold of her thorax with his legs, and sometimes bites her in an effort to quickly subdue her. Pulling his abdomen forward, he uses his anal appendages (cerci) to hold her by the neck while continuing to fly with her in a formation referred to as tandem linkage.
“he uses his anal appendages (cerci) to hold her by the neck” is certainly a collection of words.
Yah there was a deliberate choice made when using that vernacular lol.
god damn
Thats an expected response lol
That’s not really a controversial opinion. It would be controversial to say: “don’t judge an entire species that acts out evolved behaviors and instincts based on human concepts!” People often justify hunting a species to extinction based on having anthropomorphized them first and identified a “character flaw”. They are wild animals, literally and officially dinosaurs. It’s your own fault for seeing them as cute little disney characters in the first place. I mean, many species (including humans) literally kill babies of other animals and eat them raw. I don’t do that and don’t eat meat, but I can still appreciate cats, who do.

Their meat is delicious.
*when prepared propely
It is a true joy in life to sit back and enjoy a duck butt when you’re sitting by a lake and one does that little flip-dunk.
Anatidaephobia isn’t real.
To know the answer you need to go duck yourself
Got any grapes?
waddle waddle
I don’t give a duck
I think ducks are great for their respective eco systems and I appreciate them as wild animals in a violent state of nature despite knowing about the off putting way they reproduce.
The amount of controversial opinions about ducks should be zero.
Well, that’s no fun
And apparently controversial.
