How are they disgusting? When I see them they look quite cute.
I had a friend as a kid who had ducks as and I can answer this. They poop. Everywhere. A lot. Also they're loud as hell sometimes.
My neighbor has ducks and they are indeed disgusting and charmingly cute. I've seen one get up to follow me for food and she was sitting in a large pile of her waste. Also duck rape is awful. Some have died from the duck gang rapes I was told :(
Aside from their propensity to gang-rape, ducks are pretty cool. I’m not being edgy. Look it up.
I think you do transfer too much! Lots of animals have a mating ritual that involves overpowering a mating partner. It’s not pleasant to look at, but then neither is watching a chimp rip an unborn fawn out of a deer, while the deer is still alive. Nature is nature and there are lots of situations where there is direct violence between males and females as part of mating:
Drive by the duck farms in North Jersey and get back to me.
