Harlequin ducks primarily face predation from larger Birds of Prey, such as eagles and hawks, which may target them when they are near the water's surface. Additionally, terrestrial predators like foxes and coyotes can pose a threat to their nests and young chicks. However, adult harlequin ducks are relatively well-camouflaged and can often evade detection in their rocky, fast-flowing river habitats. Overall, their primary defense is their habitat choice and behavior, which helps reduce predation risk.
