>>Even with 9000 lbs around every angle of the duck...it would equal at least a metric ton in each direction and I would think that would be enough to pop its head off.

One thing to keep in mind is that an animal is not a bag of liquid. The blood is in vessels, which colapse way below 90psi, possibly preventing the blood from flowing out of the compressed tissues. I'm really speculating here though...but it sounds good.
