Yes, duck's can drown. they coat their feathers with waxy substance from there bill's,to make theyre feathers waterproof. Ducklings in theyre first few weeks cannot provide this wax, therefore they often drown. If you wash a duck with detergent and remove its feather wax the duck will then sink in water and could very possibly drown.

Who invinted electricity?
No one made electricity but they discovered it. Electricity was not invented; it occurs naturally and is an important part of keeping our physical universe in balance. Forms of natural electricity include lightning, static electricity, and the reactions of charged particles. However, legend has it that Benjamin Franklin was the first to realize that we could harness and use that energy for our own purposes when he was struck by lightning while flying a kite. In reality he was not the first to study electricity with this goal, but he did make tremendous progress in its study and practical application.
