Actually feeding bread or any other human food is not good for Ducks/Gease etc. So please do not feed them human food. It really makes me angry and shows only ignorance towards animals.
and shows only ignorance towards animals.
I mean...yeah? Most people are ignorant of things like this because they don't know any better. I can't be particularly upset at some random park goer that doesn't know all the nutritional needs of a duck, because why would I assume that's knowledge they would have? Feeding ducks bread is sort-of ingrained in the public mind, it will take education and time to undo that.
I've seen signs up at some parks lately that explain this to people, and that's a start, but they need to be more widespread, and it will take time.
Showing compassion to strangers and not assuming ill will? Sir the Internet is going to have to ask you to leave. /S
Stale Bread Man is the real villain here.
Plot twist: he gave them protein bread, that's why they're all buff
Why is bread bad for ducks?
They can't get any nutrients from it, they get full on the bread and starve, the high carb content can also give them deformed wings.
Feed them chopped up salad, corn, rice, grapes, or bird seed.

My ducks loved worms and (boiled) potatoes
It doesn't really have any nutritional value for them but it fills them up so they don't eat as much of the things that they should be eating to get proper nutrition.
It’s just junk food for birds
Honestly I think the hate for bread is a little out of hand. Is it nutritious? No, but it’s not poison either. As long as it’s only a small part of their diet it’s not hurting anything.
I have a pet bird and 90% of her diet is nutritionally dense foods, but she still gets nibbles of bread and tortillas and so forth because small amounts of treats are perfectly fine. Same concept.
RELEASE THE QUACKEN
Just be warned... he's a real party animal
Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding!
If this happens, maybe we should attempt to wake xkcd's Sheeple. Maybe it would be worse for us, but it can't be by much and the ducks wouldn't be able to have everything their own way either.
I’m glad he got hugged by a duck when he was feeling down.
I need more duck memes in my life
Charles and Mambo got jacked
hate it when that happens.
The ducks have eyes!
