Ducks provide a source of food for humans, but only assuming they can use a shotgun. This integral part of any ecosystem is filled by cows and chickens in more civilized ecosystems.

When provided with hamster wheels and suet, ducks also fertilize the earth.

They regulate the fish populations of their various ponds and marshlands, as well as the algae and grasses that they eat. Sometimes they are the food source for coyotes, lynxes, bobcats, and other carnivorous mammals. If a fish in the lake is large enough (like a sturgeon), the duck may be consumed by them. The ducks also fertilize their habitat with their excrement.
