Yes, and they can be quite fast too. But ducks are smart. They know that most of their prediators can't fly so it's smarter to take to the skies when threatened.
When they run out of waater.
Not really, they just waddle fast.
Ducks can run at speeds of around 5-6 miles per hour on land. They are more suited for swimming and flying rather than running.
Yes, yes it does.
Straight Run Ducks are ducks which are (if ordered from hatchery) ducklings sent to you right after they hatch and they don't check what sex the ducks are so its a 50% chance they are going to either be a Drake (Males) or Hens (Females).
eagles eat lots so they can be full and digest it alll but ducks are only part of their food chain if they run out of small elephants. so occasionally

If you have a lot of aylesbury ducks and have introduced a female mallard, they may just be trying to set the pecking order. Aylsbury's are large ducks, and they may not accept the duck that is a lot smaller than them. It is the pecking order. I recommend putting the mallard into a small cage and put it into the duck run. This way, the other ducks cannot attack the mallard, and will get used to her presence. I do this when introducing any new ducks/chickens into my chicken/duck run. At the end of the day, try releasing her again, and see how that goes. ~BlackWolf1112.
Straight run ducks are not sexed. Straight run basically means you get what they give you. No choice in male or female. Only females lay eggs. The drake (male duck) fertilizes the eggs. Ducks are difficult to sex and costly to do so if you hire the services of someone to do it for you. So bottom line, Your taking your chances for a female from a straight run selection.

Yes, a large duck can fight a goose but this is not the norm. Most ducks are too small to mess with a goose and will run if given the chance. We have raised both ducks and geese and our ducks have only gone after a goose when it came too near its nest.
