The missing ducks is totally taken out of context too. If you have gators, you know where the ducks went. A four foot nile cannot or won't handle a full grown duck(drake).

Also, I use to live in fla. and ducks were eaten by all kinda animals. I worked at a reptile park and we had a cypress swamp exhibit. It was always fun to see the baby ducks hatch, then line up for their first trip across the swamp. They would start out with a full clutch of 10 or so, maybe more. Then after one trip, there would be half, then half again, and within a day or two, no baby ducks at all. In this case, it had something to do with the various gar that loved duck.

Sir, I think you have more faith in people because most humans in Australia have some bush experience and some common sense about things in the bush. But I am afraid that is not so in the states and not even in Fla. I think most there now would believe anything told to them, as they are from New York city, or other such non bush places.

So the ball is rolling, how about calling the Fla. fish and game and explaining the truth to them. Thanks FR
