Crow has attacked a duckling. Aftermath !! NOT NICE to Watch

[@lambda494]

A lot of birds (heron, gull) shake prey by the neck, maybe causing some nerve damage. Wonder if that's what happened.

[@windtalker4191]

Yeah most likely the attack from the crow caused nerve damage. The duckling is not paralyzed because it is still moving it's feet, but it can no longer stay balanced or walk.

[@AveburyEddie]

As the crow first attacked, it did indeed twist the duckings neck. It was like a quick pinch, with a twist !! Without doubt it did cause nerve damage.

Poor mother duck, she looks desperate trying to put her duckling upright and make it walk again.

[@AveburyEddie]

Yes it is indeed sad to see but that is nature..Be it in it harshest form. The crow had attacked the duckling & then went back & bided its time, until it struck again I watched the initial attack but knew that I was not to interfere...Let nature take its course !!

[@CptnMatruz]

Still, I imagine the initial attack must've been really fast, the mother didn't have time to react. Not much to do even if you've wanted to interfere.

[@AveburyEddie]

You are correct there. I was taking a photo when the crow first struck & it was one second & gone !! That fast but that enough to leave the duckling stricken. I always say when I go out, not interfere with nature & just photograph it & record it. No mater how nasty it gets. Im a believer that nature should be shown in its rawest state & not just its cute & cuddly. Ha Ha !! I will say that yes, I do have quite a few cute & cuddly vids though :) As to the duckling, im afraid that you are correct. It was quite doomed, from that first initial attack.

[@AveburyEddie]

@vegan vipin Good God !! You dont even know how humans work, let alone how nature works !! Humans have Canine teeth, so hence we are by nature, meat eaters :) However I dont wear animal products, except my leather boots that I have made for me..I dont have any choice on that one. However !! If I wanted to I could go vegetarian, do to them eating Fish. While staring in a movie in France last year, I found that a quarter of the cast were vegetarians I had no thoughts of saving the duckling. The Crow has to eat also. As most likely does is chicks Thats how nature works. Ha Ha !! Sorry for traumatising you but I did warn you not to watch the video. So that was your fault Im afraid, for looking :)

[@ericclop6243]

To answer the question I noticed in comments. Yes, crows and other predatory birds (around that size) will weaken their prey into a submissive state. Then wait until the prey is tired out from fighting itself(lashing out) to get into a safer environment or until prey is weak from convulsing from pain and survival techniques. In this particular video, the crow had to wait for the surrounding ducks to disperse from the now tired and helpless duckling before it could go in for the kill.

[@AveburyEddie]

You are spot on the money, there :) This crow Im thinking has Chicks to feed. It took its head off & hid for its brain & then took its body away for the chicks.

[@CptnMatruz]

Yeah, the duckling was going to die anyway, you can see that its movements were becoming weaker, with it just flinching its feet by end. Also the duckling was in intense pain the whole time, based on its breathing rhythm.

[@AveburyEddie]

Yes it certainly would have done. Crows do this & then just sit back & wait for their prey to get weaker, before going for the kill.

I feel certain that it was getting food for its chicks. It took the duck to the side & took off its head & then hid it. To come back later to eat.

It’s amazing how they keep what they can alive sometimes. It’s gotta suck to be a duck sometimes. Maybe it will return as a crow in its next life.

[@AveburyEddie]

Ha Ha !! Quite possible :) You are correct ! I have seen clutches of 11 ducklings & this is why so many eggs are laid. Maybe only 2 ducklings from that clutch will make it to adulthood. Being a duck isnt easy, with so many predators about :)

[@avrilpeters]

Oh that's so sad she's desperate for her baby to get up but the crow must have hurt it too badly😢💔

[@AveburyEddie]

It basically twisted its neck, as it attacked. There would have been no comeback if the duckling had survived.

[@markbruschi6391]

Nature can be brutal. Makes me grateful I'm not a duck.

man is responsible for most of the extinctions in nature. It maybe for food, it maybe shot just for that new fashion clothes design. Or that reported male erection, thats theres no proof of from Rhino horns. A crow hunt for food, we hunt animals to extinction

So sorry for the duckling.

[@AveburyEddie]

@Terry Melvin The crow most likely had chicks of its own, so I doubt it had much to eat. This is nature, Silent Watcher

[@sowianskiwojownik5973]

That's right, I get irritated when I see some bleeding heart interventionist telling the cameraman that they are horrible for not stopping a predator catch its prey, it's how the circle of life works, only the strongest survive and then goes on to reproduce, while the weak becomes nourishment for another group to survive.

[@clintongriffin2077]

Mallards are gentle souls. I have raised many to be released to the wild. I have removed hooks from them in the wild. It's sad to watch a duckling go like that.

[@Xcoming2]

In a Disney movie those bystander ducks would have helped out. In real life nature they don't give a fuck.

[@AveburyEddie]

100% Correct !!

[@maxia4584]

What exactly was wrong with it it would go upright and then fall back down?

[@AveburyEddie]

The crow had attacked it & snapped its neck. It then bided its time before going back & taking it.

[@markjymnast4888]

I know your excuse or argument for not saving them is “it’s just nature, let it take it’s course and don’t intervene with it” but I personally don’t think that argument works because 1. Humans are animals and are therefore part of nature, so you’re not really going against anything by doing it. 2. It’s not like you’re going to make the Crow or Raven or their chicks starve or anything since unlike some other predators, they have a little to no trouble finding/scavenging for food either by themselves or by humans supply them with it either by purposely giving it to them or by supplying them with fresh roadkill basically every day. So saving it would have clearly been the better choice and not really significantly damage both sides. Note:I’m not trying to demonize the Crow or Raven or hating on them for taking the duck, I like them quite a lot (some of my family members raised a few and I befriended a few in some parks) and overall I actually prefer Corivades over Ducks, I’m just trying to tell you why your argument/defense for this situation doesn’t work.

[@rattle9519]

Mark Jymnast ok but the problem of helping them, is the attacker (crow) will also have nothing to eat. so at the end of the day. 1 of them is going to die

[@markjymnast4888]

Rattle I already countered that argument with my second point. They’re quit smart and have basically no trouble finding food for themselves.

[@beekbeeker2907]

Blue jay landed on my picnic table and snatched a baby in front of me and flew off Grabbed it by neck.....

A Jay will certainly do that.
