A duck is both predator and prey.

A duck eats living organisms such as small fishes (not to mention insects and grasses), which makes it a predator. Ducks are also preyed upon by foxes, wolves, and hawks.

Dogs, Cats, Large Birds Like Buzzards and Hawks. A few years back I lived on the Texas Panhandle where the wind blows and the winters are cold. If the prairie and the farmers are lucky we will have lots of snow. One sunny morning after a big snow I hiked down to a playa lake there on the property. The lake had frozen over, and ducks that had come down from more Northern regions had been frozen in the water. All of them had been eaten from the top down by the large coyote population we had.

Duck eggs are highly nutritious and are therefore a prime food source for many predators including other birds. Raccoons and skunk love them. Muskrat will steal duck eggs given the opportunity as they are omnivores. Fox will chase off the guarding parents and if they fail to catch a live adult duck they will take the eggs.


What is a male duck-?

A male duck is referred to as a 'drake' when he reaches adulthood. Similar to other bird types, the drake can be spotted easily because he has brightly colored feathers or plumage that he uses to attract hens. During mating season the drake becomes susceptible to predators because the plumage makes it so he is unable to fly.
