It isn't the father of the ducklings that kills the ducklings, it is another male who is hoping to push the mother into a breeding state so he can have his own ducklings.
I breed Netherland Dwarf rabbits, so the buck will kill the kits (babies) because he wants to keep breeding. The mom doesn't want to breed if she has babies, so he'll kill the babies to get what he wants.
This is because the older ducks are really apart of the duck clique called the Elder Ducks. They think theyr are better than all other ducks and plan to kill the rest. They are also very technologically advanced so once the rest of their species is dead they plan to move on to the infirior human race. The military is working on this new airborne duck killing disease that is planned to be released January 1, 2010. Though it will kill all ducks it will also kill the Elders. Its either us or them. You can help by duck hunting. If you see any ducks with laser guns please contact the militaryt because it means the end of humanity is starting. All we nedd is a call and bye bye little duckies. Be safe and watch for the elders.
They don't. You appear to be under a gross misunderstanding.
They are a bunch of deadbeaks and duck responsibility.
Yes. The father rabbit does. Well, he does kill them... well sort of... yeah he does, it depends on how you put it. The father rabbit eats his baby rabbits. So, if your rabbit is pregnant, when she is going to give birth, take the father out and put him in a separate cage. I don't know why, he just does. Sadly.
Foxes can kill rabbits by scaring them to death, by stalking around outside the cage or hutch. Or, if the fox can actually get to the rabbit, it can kill the rabbit with its teeth.
There is a danger that the male will eat the kits, this is one good reason why the male should not be kept with the female once she is pregnant and kindling. Until the kits have been weaned and are leaving their mother the father should be kept away!
A full grown rabbit probably has nothing to fear from a cat but cats do kill baby bunnies.
no they do not kill rabbits for moccasins they use foe fur and if you know what a rabbit fur feels like its wayyy softer
no, but the male rabbit will impregnate the female baby offspring when they mature. so young rabbits will not kill the baby rabbit.

Raccoons will kill and eat rabbits, particularly baby rabbits which are too young to escape by running.
NO, male rabbits are territorial and may hurt the baby. I concure! I would recommend that you not only keep your baby rabbits away from all adult male rabbits (bucks), but also do not let the bucks be around you without a someone that is atleast a teenager and knowledgeful of rabbit behavior as they are prone to be territorial among each other and may fight it out. Buck rabbits will kill infant rabbits and I have seen this happen as I was a rabbit breeder. There was only one buck rabbit I know of that did not do this and he was our most well behaved rabbit and this was only under my (as the family rabbit breeder and the one that studied it the most) supervision.
Rabbits, especially unaltered adult rabbits or rabbits who have been abused/neglected, will sometimes fight other rabbits and cause deadly wounds. (Even a small skin wound can develop into a life-threatening infection.) See the related question below for more info. A rabbit could also kill another rabbit without meaning to by infecting it with a deadly disease. Adult rabbits have been known to kill baby rabbits accidentally (trampling), and purposefully (cannibalism -- this is a much discussed but in actuality an unusual circumstance, often resulting from stress).
You probably touched the kits when the mother rabbit was looking. That's when she will kill her young. First remove the baby rabbits, then bring it to the vet. The vet will examine them to make sure that they have any wounds, cuts, or bruises. The vet will give the baby rabbits some medicine and milk.

First Answer: Ferrets don't eat rabbits. Most rabbits are too big for them to consume. A different answer: Actually, ferrets and all weasels do attack, kill, and eat rabbits. Their method is to jump on the rabbit's back, where the rabbit can't defend themselves; they grip on to the rabbit's neck with their teeth until the rabbit loses strength and dies. Ferrets also kill and eat baby rabbits. In the home, it's very unlikely that a rabbit-ferret friendship will develop; oddly enough, it's much more likely that a rabbit will get along with a pet cat or dog!

No! The babies will be semi-wild, but still sweet! Wild rabbits do it! Don't kill the rabbit!
